Year 11 Parent information
Year 11 and 13 presentation evening date is confirmed as Tuesday 17th December 2024 at Fakenham academy.
We would like to invite you and the Year 11 students back to school for the Presentation Evening on Tuesday 17th December 2024 in the evening. This is always a wonderful event where the former Year 11 and 13 students come together to receive their official GCSE and BTEC certificates. There will be prizes in each subject and a guest speaker. It is also a really good chance for students to come back and catch up with friends and teachers and let us know how things are going since they left. We will contact you nearer the time with official invitations and ask you to confirm your attendance.
Contact details for the Progress Leader for Year 11 - Mrs Dewson v.dewson@fakenhamacademy.org

Post-16 Study
We have increased numbers of students applying to Fakenham Sixth Form because of all of the fantastic opportunities we offer. Take a look at how we work with parents, to support all of our students to meet their potential. If students have not yet applied or have changed their mind about going to another post-16 provider, there is still time to come and have a tour and make an application.
