Leigh Academy Blackheath is split into three separate colleges which were named by our founding Year 7 students in 2018. The three colleges are identified by their unique college colour of either red, turquoise or green. Details of your child's college membership will be issued in due course.
Each Year 7 student will be issued with a tie in their college colour when they attend our upcoming Headstart Day.
