Countesthorpe Academy on BBC Breakfast and CBBC Newsround!

🎉 Exciting News! Countesthorpe Academy on BBC Breakfast and CBBC Newsround! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Countesthorpe Academy was featured on BBC Breakfast last Saturday and CBBC Newsround this week! 📺✨

The spotlight was on our incredible new eSports arena and our pioneering eSports BTEC course. Our state-of-the-art arena is equipped with the latest technology, providing our students with an unparalleled gaming experience. The eSports BTEC course is designed to give students a comprehensive education in the world of competitive gaming, covering everything from game strategy to event management. 🎮🏆

A special highlight was the amusing story of Mrs. Coulson, who was mistaken for a professional eSports player! 😂 Her enthusiasm and dedication to the eSports program have truly inspired us all.

We are immensely proud of our students who participate in the eSports course and those who attend the eSports club. Their passion and commitment are what make our program so successful. 🌟

A huge thank you to all the staff and students at Countesthorpe Academy who took part in making this possible. Your hard work and dedication are greatly appreciated. 🙌👏

Stay tuned for more exciting updates from Countesthorpe Academy! 🚀
