The Bay Secondary School

The Bay Secondary School is part of The Bay CE School and occupies a campus on The Fairway in Sandown. Outside the school day, its sports areas are used by community groups for coaching and club sessions. That makes the site familiar to local families, but visitors should remember that community access is limited to the facilities and times agreed with the organiser. School buildings and other areas remain private even when a pitch or hall is in use.

The address is The Fairway, Sandown, PO36 9JH. The campus lies inland from the town centre, with local bus stops and residential streets nearby. Parking and the correct entrance can depend on the activity, so follow the team’s instructions rather than relying on the main school reception. Outdoor training is vulnerable to poor weather and ground conditions. Parents should check the club’s message channels before setting out if heavy rain or strong wind is forecast.

Junior football sessions require suitable boots or trainers, weather-appropriate layers and a drink. Shin pads and other safety equipment should be used when the coach requests them. Free introductory training may still require advance contact so the club can plan numbers and collect emergency details. Children remain the responsibility of the coaching team only during the stated session, so agree drop-off and collection arrangements in advance. Direct questions about age groups, kit or cancellation to Wight Eagles rather than the school office.
