Combine ambitious sixth-form study with high-quality football coaching at one of Volenti Academy’s three London partner schools: London Nautical School, Coombe Wood School and Highbury Grove.
Our Football & Education programmes give students aged 16–18 the opportunity to develop as players while working towards qualifications that support their next step. Academic options vary by school, with football training built around the sixth-form timetable.
Led by experienced coaches, including former professional players, Volenti develops technical ability, tactical understanding and the confidence to perform. Our wider programme has helped over 100 players sign with professional clubs, alongside pathways into university, US scholarships, coaching and employment.
For Year 11 students considering their next step, a Player ID Day is the opportunity to meet our team, demonstrate their ability and learn how education and football come together at Volenti.
