Achieving excellence in a learning community

This is an outstanding school.

We have fantastic students, a tremendously supportive community of parents, an expert, highly committed staff and we are situated in leafy Ealing, the queen of the suburbs! As an ambitious and highly achieving school, we have received numerous attainment and progress awards during our unbroken run of ever-increasing academic success over the past decade. We have achieved three awards in recognition of our highly effective approaches to ‘engagement in evidence and research’, ‘variety of teaching approaches’ and ‘professional learning’. These three aspects of our work are absolutely vital and are part of our investment in teachers and their professional development.

As a proud community school, we follow a broad curriculum with all KS3 students taking art, DT, MFL, drama and music alongside the academic core. At KS4 and 5 we offer the full range of option subjects including vocational BTECs. We operate sensible and highly effective teaching and learning, behaviour and staff development policies.
