Leaders think carefully about pupils’ welfare, take an innovative approach to make sure that they support pupils effectively, (and) have designed a coherent and broad curriculum…as a result, pupils’ progress at key stage 3 is strong’.

The greatest strength of our school is our students who are often praised for their creativity, musical talents, artistic performances and respect they have for one another. Students generally understand the importance of learning, value their school and are proud to be part of it.

The school has a wide and varied curriculum, students have access to an impressive range of sporting and extracurricular activities with well over sixty enrichment opportunities offered after school.
