County Finals for our Year 7 scholars! Always wonderful to hear about our young people being EDA in everything they do! #theEDAway
It was an absolute pleasure to take these wonderful young ladies to the Staffordshire Sports Hall Athletics finals. Polite, well-mannered, caring and determined throughout! A credit to the Academy, and a true reflection of the EDA way!

Well done Olivia, we are very proud of you #weareEDA #ProudtobeEDA
@EDarwinAcademy Olivia achieved her second belt tonight (yellow belt) in kickickboxing.
Great to welcome back all staff and scholars today. A special mention to Year 11 who have started their final PPEs today. Their behaviour and attitude were both first class, some might say it was #EDAtastic. Well done all, more of the same tomorrow #weareEDA #proudtobeEDA
On offer tomorrow. Pancakes available from Cafe Erasmus #weareEDA #proudtobeEDA

6th Form scholars have completed their European dash & are home. Highlights include Chimney Cakes in Prague, palaces in Vienna and hot chocolate in the Hotel Adlon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ at Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Huge thanks to staff who gave up their time to make the trip happen.
Today’s Azorean adventures saw our Geography scholars visit the Furnas area, taking in the fumaroles, microbiology and botanical gardens. Finishing with a visit to a tea and pineapple plantation 🍍🇵🇹

Whilst Storm Dennis takes its toll on the U.K., there are no such worries for our scholars in Central Europe. Beautiful in Budapest yesterday & students were able to learn all about 🇭🇺 with an afternoon in the natural springs, and a night cruise to finish the day off.
We set records wherever we go. Not even storm Dennis could stop our Year 11 scholar from smashing the speed climb record. Have an enjoyable final morning and have a safe journey back #weareEDA #ProudtobeEDA
This evening saw our groups getting competitive with the speed climb. Congratulations to all climbers, with Oliver winning with a new centre record of 8.44 seconds! 🧗
