The remaining students enter apprenticeships and employment.
We have designed a curriculum that is equitable for all pupils. The curriculum is broad and balanced. All pupils have equal access to all subjects at key stage 3, and key stage 4.
Prayer and liturgy are an important part of our school and at least six times a year we hold school masses celebrated by one of our local priests, which allows our school to get together to celebrate its Catholic identity. Our Catholic life is also sustained by our weekly Friday Mass for pupils and parents and our Wednesday Prayer Group.
In a denominational inspection, dated June 2019, the school was judged outstanding for its provision for Religious Education and Catholic Life, which includes Spiritual, Moral, Social, and Cultural Development (SMSC).
