MPCT Expands National Reach with Opening of Three New Academies

MPCT is proud to announce the launch of three brand-new academies this May, continuing its mission to support young people through military-style education and personal development.

The expansion marks another significant milestone for MPCT, as it brings its unique training and mentoring approach to three new locations: Luton, Norwich, and Peterborough. These academies will provide local young people with valuable skills, confidence, and opportunities to progress into the Armed Forces, further education, or employment.

The official opening events are scheduled as follows:

  • Luton: Tuesday, 6th May, from 10:30 to 12:00
    Army Reserve Centre, 242 Marsh Lane, Luton, LU3 2RX
  • Norwich: Thursday, 8th May, from 10:30 to 12:00
    Army Reserve Centre, 325 Aylsham Road, Norwich, NR3 2AB
  • Peterborough: Tuesday, 13th May, from 10:30 to 12:00
    Army Reserve Centre, London Road, Woodston, Peterborough, PE2 9BY

Each event will feature introductions to the MPCT curriculum, meet-and-greet opportunities with staff and current students, and insights into how the programme supports physical fitness, leadership development, and academic achievement.

“This is a proud moment for MPCT, by opening these new academies, we’re offering even more young people the chance to benefit from our proven methods of motivation, structure, and support. We’re excited to welcome local communities to see the positive impact we can make together.”

MPCT’s continued growth reflects the increasing demand for alternative education pathways that not only prepare students for military careers but also empower them to become confident, capable members of society.
