Term dates
Alternative provision academies can set their own term dates. Many follow Wolverhampton council's dates, shown below as a guide, but check with the school, especially for INSET days.
2026/27
2027/28
Admissions
Places for Year 7 are applied for through your home council, not the school.
Apply for a secondary school place on GOV.UK
How places are given: there's no entrance test. When there are more applicants than places, places usually go by criteria such as siblings, distance or catchment area. Check the council's or school's admissions policy for the exact rules.
Ofsted inspection
Short (ungraded) inspection, 7 June 2023: School remains Good. It was inspected as Orchard Centre (The Nightingale Home and Hospital Service), before the school changed (for example, became an academy).
From Ofsted's published inspection data (Open Government Licence). Report cards and older grades use different scales, so they can't be compared directly.
