}}Isca Academy (formerly Isca College of Media Arts and Priory High School) is a mixed secondary school located in Exeter in the English county of Devon.[1]

Structure

Previously a community school administered by Devon County Council, Isca converted to academy status on 1 October 2013 sponsored by the Ted Wragg Trust.[2] However the school continues to coordinate with Devon County Council for admissions.

Curriculum

Isca Academy offers GCSEs, BTECs and ASDAN courses as programmes of study for pupils. Some courses are offered in conjunction with Exeter College.[3]

Media attention

Cliff top selfies

Procedures for field trips at the school were reviewed in 2016 after four pupils climbed over a fence to take selfies at the top of the crumbling cliff top at Salcombe Hill, Sidmouth, despite warning signs, prompting a response involving RNLI members.[4][5]

Uniform protest

In 2017 during a heat wave, boys at the college wore skirts in protest at not being allowed to wear shorts.[6] One parent claimed that the protest had been sparked by her 14-year-old son being threatened with confinement to an "isolation room" if he wore shorts, and being told sarcastically by the head teacher that wearing a skirt would not incur such a punishment. The protest lasted four days, involving only five boys at the outset, one of whom was punished for his skirt being too short, but had escalated to fifty pupils by its end, including from all year groups. The school then announced that short trousers would be permitted in the summer term of the subsequent school year, subject to consultations.[7]
