Co-Curriculum Offer

Pupils should attend the game night of their choice with an account already created for the title they have chosen. In some cases, parental permission is required to create an account on the Epic Games/Blizzard hosting server. To aid gameplay and time spent in the room having this account prior to arriving is a necessity. 

 

Alongside this, all pupils attending will be asked to take a contract of use form home for you to sign. This allows you to see the safety elements and protocols in place for your son/daughter when using the game space on-site. 

 

If your son/daughter is deemed good enough to represent the academy in a game title following trials and wishes to do so they will be asked to play fixtures on-site on a Wednesday afternoon from 2 – 5 p.m. 

 

Lastly please see attached an information drop in regards to a new after-school hours (5-8 p.m.) professional Esports coaching opportunity.
