This time next year, our first students will be allocated places at the Hammersmith Academy.  We still have a long way to go to make it a reality and still have to raise £350,000 to complete the endowment.

The Academy will create a culture and environment of ICT enabled learning which will equip young people of all backgrounds, faiths and abilities with the skills and confidence to make the best use of advancing technologies in their social and working lives.

The Academy will build relationships with Digital Media and IT companies to help develop the skills of a new generation of young professionals with the vision and ambition to build careers in the business of technology.
