The UCL Academy is a secondary school located in Swiss Cottage in the London borough of Camden, London, United Kingdom and sponsored by UCL.[1] It opened in September 2012 with 180 students in Year 7 and recently reached full capacity as of September 2017.

History

The concept of a new academy school in Camden sponsored by UCL was first announced by Malcolm Grant, the UCL Provost, in November 2007.[2]

On 6 August 2010 Education Secretary Michael Gove announced that the Academy would receive a requested £30 million capital allocation and would therefore proceed.[3][4] It was revealed on 9 September 2010 that the opening of the Academy had been delayed for one year due to the lack of funds. However, the Academy went on to open in September 2012.[5]

The Academy admitted its first pupils in September 2012.[6]

The school operates under a co-principal model.[7] Its co-principals are Robin Street and Simon Mcbride

Building

The Academy is housed in new, purpose-built accommodation located on Adelaide Road.[8] Facilities in the new accommodation include:

  • suites of rooms for cross-curricular general learning called Superstudios;
  • suites of rooms for art, music and drama, including performance spaces;
  • science laboratories, and a science demonstration theatre for lectures, experiments and talks by visiting academics from UCL;
  • an engineering science suite, including workshops and technology and science labs;
  • House areas, providing places for students to eat together, and for informal study during breaks and before and after school.[8]

Plans for the new building received planning permission in August 2010.[9]

Curriculum

The Academy specialises in mathematics, engineering and science[10] and Mandarin is taught.[11]
