The secondary school strives to help each student develop into a mature, responsible and Christian adult. Staff provide opportunities to take part in acts of worship throughout the year, as well as charity activities. The pastoral system is based on a culture of respect and focuses on the welfare and achievement of students. 

The curriculum concentrates on the core subjects of maths, RE, PE, English and science. Other subjects include art and design, performing arts, product design, nutrition and construction. 

Ofsted report

“The curriculum is well matched to students’ needs. There is a small and appropriate offer of vocational subjects but the mainstay of the curriculum is traditional and academic. Students receive good quality information, advice and guidance involving their parents. There is a good range of extra-curricular activities on offer.”
