prayer. Each year, every form group will decide on a charity, and on one Wednesday each term, will attempt to raise money for these charities with fund raisers. In September 2010 and 2012, only one campus took in new students. In 2010, this was Wollaton Park, and in 2012, this was Aspley Lane. The school created two form groups for each house in this situation, to prevent the form groups from being too large. They were named after the house of which thy were part, followed by either 1 or 2. (for example, Braithwaite would consist of two form groups, Braithwaite 1 and Braithwaite 2.) In years 7 & 8, the majority of lessons are taken with the mixed-ability groups. During the first two years, they spend the majority of the time in the same classes about the same students. The next year, most lessons including Maths, English, Science and RS are . Extra curricular activities There are clubs and societies that run during lunch times and after the school day. The school participates in The Duke of Edinburgh's Award scheme, from Bronze to Gold. Owing to COVID-19, most extra curricular activities have been cancelled, to prevent mixing of social bubbles. The Wollaton Park Campus building was formerly the home to Cornerstone Church, a large independent evangelical church, who had their offices within the school and met at the school each Sunday.

In 2011, the girl band Parade visited the school and performed for a selection of special students. In 2012, Lucien Laviscount visited the Wollaton site. In 2015, Jermain Jackman visited and performed at the Aspley site to promote the National Citizen Service, or NCS, programme. To see the performance, all Wollaton and Beechdale students were escorted to the Aspley site for the afternoon. The school day For many years the school operated on a two-week timetable to balance mre effectively the time spent on minority subjects. In September 2007, the school system switched to a single-week timetable format and reformatted the timing and length of the school day. The system of six fifty-minute lessons per day has been replaced by five one-hour lessons—a system previously used up until the mid-1990s but now with an extra lesson allocated after normal school time. In 2015, the school
