At Redden Court School, we are extremely proud to offer a select group of students the opportunity of a place in the Redden Court Sports Academy (RCSA).
Students who are successful with gaining a place in the academy will be monitored regularly to ensure they continue to meet the RCSA programme criteria. Each of the areas below will be taken into consideration when reviewing students’ progress.
Attendance at extra curricular practices including sports academy training on Wednesday morning (8.20am-9am).

The above information will be tracked using a RCSA handbook which will be provided for each student. This will allow students to track each session they attend, monitor their fitness and set personal targets to improve their sporting performance.
At Redden Court School, we believe there is a great importance in sports diversification. We want all our students (not only in the sports academy) to experience a number of different sports, including sports that they have never played before.
