A new sports hall was built and the old sports hall has been turned into a drama studio with a theatre at the front as Brampton Manor is now a specialist performing arts academy. There is also a new Media/Art suite, with a chill out area and media rooms for both performing, recording and dance use. In 2019 new accommodation has been started in a 5,339 sqm stand alone block for the incoming Year 7 students. This is alongside an expanded sixth form centre (871 sqm).[7] The catering facilities have been expanded to deal with the growing student population. [citation needed]
