What the school offers its staff

Our school is a place where opportunities and experiences instil a love of learning and aspirations are nurtured. We encourage our pupils to aim high and be proud of their achievements as they strive to excel in their learning. Our school site structure allows for an environment where our younger pupils will flourish as they start their secondary school journey at our Lower School site which provides space for them to grow both personally and academically. Moving to our upper School site in Year 9, pupils can engage in key opportunities to explore academic interests and focus on subject options, career pathways and routes into our Sixth Form, all supported by our dedicated team. We provide a creative, safe, and caring environment where every child is known and cared for as an individual. In this climate, every young person can thrive as they develop in personality, character and intellect and become a highly successful learner and individual. As a school at the heart of the community it serves, we will work in partnership to ensure our children not only receive a broad and balanced education but also allow them to enjoy the area they live in and make a positive wider contribution to the community
