Values and vision

  • Quality teaching and learning is at the heart of Queens Park Community School. We don't select our students, but we do select our staff. Experts in their subjects, our teachers care about every student, and they inspire and motivate our students to learn and achieve.
  • It is not about where you come from; it is where you are going to that counts. Our high expectations are underpinned by first-class teaching in mixed-attainment groups, challenging and supporting every one of our students to progress towards their life goals.
  • Our emphasis on creativity enables Queens Park students to flourish. They have the freedom to express themselves thanks to our strong academic, cultural, artistic and sporting curriculum with excellent enrichment.
  • Our students experience success. They are challenged to achieve their aspirations. When they leave us to go on to university, jobs or apprenticeships, they are proud to say "QPCS made me who I am." They come back and share their success, inspiring the next generation and building our community.

Ofsted report

“Members of the governing body are experienced and highly skilled… Their primary concern was to achieve academy status while continuing to secure the support of staff, parents and the wider community. Their determination to succeed, together with their collegiate and open leadership style, ensured that the transition was seamless. They continue to appropriately challenge school leaders about the ethos and quality of education provided by the school. They are very aspirational and, as a result, there is a continuing programme of improvement.”
