The PE department runs several co-curricular activities for students including football, rock climbing, trampolining, dodgeball, Kin ball, fitness, tennis, hockey, netball, badminton, basketball, cricket and athletics; Hodgson is proud of our strong sporting tradition and our success in local, regional and national leagues. Inter House competitions in numerous sports are held for students to compete in and achieve points and trophies for their houses. 

Performing Arts and Music are popular and successful areas with students offered the opportunity to take part in dance, drama, join the school band as well as take part in the annual whole school production.

The Visual Arts is another area in which the Academy is successful with students working with local artists as well as taking part in exhibitions and competitions at the Grundy Art Gallery and Blackpool and the Fylde College Gallery.
