We are totally inclusive and believe that all students here will ‘Climb the STAIRS to Greatness’ and reach our two end goals of getting their dream job and becoming a model citizen.

Of everything, we are most proud of the aspirational and resilient young people leaving us who go on to thrive in purposeful and challenging further education.
