An 11 – 19 secondary school which opened in September 2018, was established by Derby Diocesan Academy Trust (DDAT) and Derby Cathedral to help meet the need for additional high-quality secondary places in the Derby area. The school has had a successful start and is currently over-subscribed for every year group. There are currently three cohorts of students in school with a further cohort due to join in September 2021, and every subsequent year until full. We will be opening a sixth form provision in September 2023. We will have 720 students in September 2021 across Years 7 to 10.

The school equips students with skills and qualifications that enable them to access high-quality careers in and around the city of Derby and beyond. The curriculum offer is broad and balanced and our specialism in Mathematics and Music is enhanced by strong links with the Cathedral Choir and Music Department, which has a track record of music tutelage. The curriculum specialisms and our character values, based on the acronym FAITH, are a key part of the school vision and represent a platform from which we build high levels of personal development, well-being and achievement from Year 7 onwards.

The development of our brand-new site within the City Centre will provide abundant parking and a new, modern working environment.
