Football Excellence
Inclusivity and sporting excellence
The programme is open to all pupils, with dedicated football development pathways for both girls and boys, building on the school’s strong tradition of inclusivity and sporting excellence.
“We’re proud to offer every pupil – whether they play for fun or show real promise – the chance to grow through football,” said Henry Keighley-Elstub, Headteacher of Devonshire House. “This partnership will bring professional coaching into our everyday school life and reflects our belief in sport’s role in building confidence, resilience and teamwork.”
