Last week a group of our Year 10s enjoyed a visit to Eccles College to experience the BTEC Football Programme with the assistance of Manchester United Foundation and find out what’s involved.

Our group enjoyed a 30 minute presentation detailing the content of the course, its’ outcomes and the possible career options this course could lead to. They then had the amazing opportunity to take part in a 90 minute training session with the college instructors doing a range of football drills and games.

The boys behaved impeccably and were extremely mature during the session. They all said it was a great experience…huge thanks to Miss Howarth and Mr Frankham for organising this opportunity.
