Our unique transition curriculum ensures that all students achieve their potential and feel right at home at secondary school straight away and has drawn interest from far and wide with educators visiting us to find out more about how we facilitate this. We are a host school for the Exemplary Leadership Programme and also a lead school within the Sandwell and Walsall PEIA Self-Regulation and Metacognition strand. In 2023-24 we hosted over 150 colleagues including some international visitors nonetheless! In September 2024, our students and staff featured in the BBC Panorama documentary entitled ‘Can we live without our phones?”

Our innovative timetable including the bespoke Horizon, Innov8 and Cloud 9 curriculum, as well as a firm focus on EBacc subjects, has led to us being the school of choice in the local area and continually being oversubscribed ever since we opened. Our unique approach to school; Family Lunch and Breakfast, the Company system, Wednesday afternoon enrichment offer, and Parent Evening model is unlike any other school locally and shows how we are #changingthenarrative for what is possible here in Sandwell. We have been externally recognised by being shortlisted for Secondary School of the Year at both the TES Awards and Education Today Awards in 2024.

In addition to this our DfE Performance Table results in 2024 (and over the last three years) show Q3 Academy Langley is now one of the top performing schools not only locally in Sandwell but indeed across the whole of the Midlands. This means that I am extremely confident that students, parents and carers who choose Q3 Academy Langley will feel they have made the right decision from the very start and be excited to join the Q3 family on this exciting journey together as we see the academy grow to full capacity of approximately 1500 students by 2025.
