Elite Cricket Performance Academy is a learning space for Youths to attend high standards of Cricket using new techniques and technology through a continual, structured improvement process. Our primary objective is to complement the excellent work undertaken by Schools, Clubs, Districts and County programmes in the delivery of high-quality cricket coaching. Our experienced, industry professional coaches are passionate about delivering the best for our students, ensuring that we can enhance their play to reach their optimal potential. Our services are tailored to suit the students and our structured, long term programmes are available during evenings, weekends and school breaks, accommodating for all. Elite Cricket Performance Academy has been formed by a group of experienced coaches who have worked in multiple County pathways, providing a broad scope of instruction and practice for the players. Our goal is to create a positive learning environment for players and help them play to their strengths, work on their weaknesses and understand ‘their game’ in depth. As an Academy, our fundamentals for the sport are derived from Biomechanics, but every player is uniquely individual, so not all will be taught to bowl or bat exactly in the same manner. We believe in empowering the players and use modern methods of coaching, taken from Tennis, Hurling, Baseball, Football, Basketball and applying them to Cricket providing players with multiple tools. Through tactical sessions, the players explore how they might want to use those tools and which is the most appropriate for them at any given time.

We have highly-qualified, experienced and dedicated teaching staff and a proven track record of progression onto higher education and employment. The St Bernadette Centre has recently undergone significant refurbishment and investment. Students have exclusive access to a group work room on their study day which doubles as a social space at break and lunch. They also have access to computer facilities in our new library which provides a modern learning space to aid them as they become more independent learners. Our curriculum offers the very best in both academic and vocational courses to match the needs of all our students. All Sixth Form students study Core RE across their two year career with us and complete the Extended Project, applying Catholic Social Teaching to a moral and ethical issue of their choice. Whilst we believe in allowing greater freedom to our students, we strive to have a true partnership between students, parents and tutors. Excellent pastoral care is provided by experienced tutors who advise, encourage and monitor student progress. The Duke of Edinburgh Award remains a strong feature of our school into the Sixth Form. The award gives students the chance to experience physical activities, volunteering, whilst developing life skills through expeditions; it is valued by universities and employees alike. During May half-term, Sixth Form students join the annual Diocesan pilgrimage to Lourdes to care for and assist the sick and disabled pilgrims. This is a very popular extra-curricular opportunity which really demonstrates the faith of our students in action. Throughout the week God’s love in action is seen through the selfless service of the young people and their generosity of spirit, sharing their talents and energy and time willingly with others.
