Students will be making the news on Thursday 11 March.
Twenty Year 9 students will be taking part in the national BBC News School Report - creating their own news bulletins to be shown on the BBC and Academy websites.
In preparation, the students have been investigating stories and acting as real-life reporters for the past couple of weeks.
"It's been a fantastic experience for them," said Performing Arts teacher Darren Thomson, "The children involved had only ever watched television before, but within a fortnight they have learned skills to produce professional news reports from scratch. They have impressed everyone with their outstanding enthusiasm and talent."
