AN open day at a Keighley school gave members of the public a chance to learn more about the educational opportunities it offers.

People were able to view the facilities available for pupils studying at University Academy Keighley. (UAK)

A spokesman for the school said: "Visitors and parents of prospective students were treated to a wealth of activities with each of the academy’s faculties providing activities, experiences and games.

"Youngsters and parents had the opportunity to try a new sport, follow the Roald Dahl Hunt, be wowed by some hands-on science, get creative and make their own lolly stick character or challenge themselves with some mathematical games and much more.

"UAK's student ambassadors were also on hand to guide our visitors around the activities and let people know what it’s like to be a student here."

Sean Carragher, the school's acting principal, said: “We're delighted to welcome families and prospective students to UAK.

"We want them to meet teachers, understand what it will be like to learn here and see our wonderful facilities.

"We are delighted to have a really positive attendance and we look forward to seeing many of them join us in September 2019.

"It is an exciting time for the academy as we are working in partnership with the 'Outstanding' rated Bradford school, Carlton Bolling.”
