Elite Sport Academies

The Elite Sport Academies are a collaboration between Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys and The Canterbury Academy under the umbrella of The Canterbury Institute of Sport (CIS).  The partnership involves the two educational establishments providing a range of sports programmes for sixth form students attending the respective schools.

Through flexible timetabling, high quality staffing and strategic curriculum design, the CIS is able to offer a sports training package that allows students dedicated time allocated to their respective sport.  In most sports, it also offers a regular competitive experience alongside the weekly training schedule
