Based in Providence Place, West Bromwich, the Academy will work in partnership with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) and serve all of Sandwell and the wider West Midlands. The Academy is for all students who have a passion or talent for music – they do not necessarily need to already play an instrument. From September 2024, we will have students in years 7, 8 and 12.

Shireland CBSO Academy is part of the Shireland Collegiate Academy Trust, providing staff with opportunities to progress both within the school, and across the Trust.

We believe:

At Shireland CBSO Academy we are committed to an inclusive education for local students at every ability level, a rigorous grounding in academic fundamentals and equipping students for the future through teaching them relevant and cutting-edge skills for the era in which they live.

That every student should be safe, happy, ambitious for themselves and respectful of all.

To ensure the students have world class opportunities which allow them to compete with any students in the country.
