The buildings, coupled with the extensive 22-acre grounds, make up elegant and inspiring surroundings.

Our vision is that every student is prepared to be the best they can be in life and able to create their own future. We believe that every student is different and has unique talents. Through developing these talents and knowledge each student can be the best they can be and in control of their own future. We value an inclusive learning environment that accepts no excuses and builds partnerships with all stakeholders.

If you share the school’s vision and ambition to raise standards for our students, then we would be delighted to hear from you.
