About this Project:

Dixons City Academy is located in Bradford and has been awarded the title Centre of Educational Excellence.

Originally founded in 1990, the academy focuses mainly on performing arts – allowing it to select 10% of students based purely on talent within the local area.

The academy does repeatedly well in Ofsted reports and carries a recognised specialism in health and science.

Dixons Allerton Academy’s new £29m facility on Rhodesway in Allerton was designed to house 1,886 students aged three to nineteen years.

The new academy incorporates a state-of-the-art energy centre, including the innovative ‘green roof’ which has been created to encourage biodiversity.
