The school building is modern and has cat6 cabling and data points installed throughout. The school has approximately 1100 students and 125 staff members. These numbers are expected to grow to 1500 students and 200 staff over the coming years. Staff (and some students) are allocated personal laptops to use. All other students use desktops when they are in lessons that require the use of computers. The academy has standardised on using Microsoft 365 cloud services that operate alongside services provided by on-premise virtual servers (a hybrid model).
