Key Partners

The University of Worcester

The University of Worcester is a key partner in the success of The Hereford Academy. We aim to develop a real partnership with the University by use of the Aimhigher Initiative; by securing progression agreements which give our students better access to university places and by offering bursaries to support students living away from home.

University of Gloucestershire

The Hereford Academy is a partner school in the University of Gloucestershire Compact scheme. This offers students the chance to attend activities and receive guidance about Higher Education. Students from Compact schools who decide to pursue a HE course at the University of Gloucestershire will also be offered a bursary and extra assistance prior to formal registration

Peter Prosser Hairdressing

We are thrilled to be working with Peter Prosser Hairdressing as a key partner in our hair and beauty provision. In working in partnership with The Hereford Academy Post-16 students are offered the opportunity to study and train towards real qualifications and more importantly a career in hairdressing supported by the commitment not just to our team but to the future of British hairdressing as a whole.

"It is really fantastic to witness young people developing their skills with us and in turn launching a career that offers excellent prospects within such an exciting industry"
Peter Prosser

South Wye Regeneration Project

SWRP is the strategic body for South Wye and consists of key placers who have interest in the SW community. The Hereford Academy works with two of the Partnership's Four advisory groups; Economic Development and Enterprise, and the Children and Young People groups. The SWRP aims to create more and better paid employment and a more adaptable and higher skilled workforce within our community

"SWRP is excited to be facilitating closer working between The Hereford Academy, the business community of Rotherwas and the wider community of South Wye in order to build strong relationships, to raise skill levels and education attainment and demonstrate the broad range of employment opportunities locally"
Mandy Evans, SWRP
