Atelier 21 Future School

Thank you to our Atelier 21 community 💛

To our learners, families, staff, volunteers and wider community, thank you for another incredible year of growth and creativity

Every performance, event, fundraiser, sports fixture and classroom success has been made possible because of the people who make up Atelier 21.

We can't wait to do it all again in September!

Creativity sits at the heart of everything we do 🎨

Whether learners are performing on stage, designing products for the Business Fair, creating murals or solving real-world problems, every experience develops confidence, collaboration and imagination.

Learning should inspire curiosity, and that's exactly what we strive to do every day!

Considering a more future-focused academic route for Year 10 or Year 11? 🤔

At Atelier 21, learners follow the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme, a globally recognised alternative to GCSEs that offers academic depth alongside critical thinking, creativity and real-world application.

The IB MYP encourages learners to understand concepts deeply, make connections across subjects and apply knowledge with confidence, helping them develop the independence and future-ready skills needed for further education and beyond.

For many learners, the MYP offers a broader, more meaningful academic pathway than the traditional GCSE model, without compromising ambition or outcomes.

With small class sizes and personalised support, our Year 10 and Year 11 learners are known, challenged and guided through this important stage of their education.

Limited places available for this academic year.

Education is about more than preparing children for exams 🤔

It's about preparing them for life!

At Atelier 21, we believe the most meaningful learning happens when children are encouraged to ask questions, solve real-world problems, collaborate with others and explore their own ideas with confidence. Through enquiry, creativity, collaboration and authentic experiences, our learners develop the resilience, curiosity and independence they'll carry with them long after they leave school.

Because success isn't just measured by what children know, it's measured by who they become.

Gold School Games Mark Award! 🥇

We are incredibly proud to announce that Atelier 21 has achieved the Gold School Games Mark for 2025/26.

This national recognition celebrates our commitment to providing inclusive, high-quality sporting opportunities for every learner.

A huge thank you to Ben, our staff and all of our learners who continue to make sport such an important part of life at Atelier 21!

Good luck to our wonderful Year 11 learners receiving their IB MYP results today! 🎉

We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you. Not only for the hard work, dedication and resilience you have shown, but for the thoughtful, creative and courageous young people you have become.

Your journey through the IB Middle Years Programme has been about so much more than results. It has been about learning to think critically, ask meaningful questions, challenge yourselves and grow in confidence.

Today is a moment to celebrate everything you have achieved and the exciting futures ahead of you.

Well done Year 11, we are so proud of you! 🌟

Atelier 21 is a school where a learner's voice genuinely matters 💙

From Year 2 onwards, learners can become Ambassadors, supporting younger peers and raising ideas directly with Senior Leadership. Whether suggesting new equipment, discussing school improvements or helping shape aspects of school life, our learners understand that their voices have value.

We are proud to nurture confident young people who know they can make meaningful change!

Congratulations, Year 6! 🎓

This week we celebrated our wonderful Year 6 learners as they prepare for the next stage of their journey.

Over the years they have grown into confident, kind and resilient young people who are ready for new challenges.

We are so proud of everything they have achieved and cannot wait to see what comes next.

Congratulations, Year 6. We'll miss you in primary but can't wait to see what you achieve when you go upstairs to Upper School!

What a fantastic Sports Day we had recently! 🏅

From sprint races and long jump to hurdles, relay races and our ever-popular parent races, Sports Day was filled with determination, encouragement and teamwork.

Congratulations to Yellow Team, who were crowned this year's champions!

A huge thank you to Ben for organising another fantastic day, our incredible staff and volunteers, and all of the parents and carers who came along to cheer on our learners.

Days like these remind us that sport is about so much more than winning; it's about resilience, teamwork and having fun together.
