Rooted in our local community, we are a school of 860 students, educating students from Snaith and a number of surrounding villages. We are small enough to feel like a family and we pride ourselves on knowing and appreciating our students as individuals. However, we are also large to offer a wide and exciting curriculum in both KS3 and KS4, run numerous sports teams and invite the community in to school to enjoy one of our many productions and/or concerts.
We are at the heart of our community, opening doors to great opportunities and happy, successful lives.
We do this by: working hard, supporting and trusting each other to always do what is right; by being kind, helpful and considerate and seeing the best in everyone; having the highest expectations of ourselves and others.
