It is an excellent place to teach, learn and develop; to share best practice and support the progression of fellow professionals and students. Inclusive values The values of friendship and knowledge, symbolised on our school badge, underpin all our learning and development activities and also ensure that we support the wellbeing of our students and staff.

We have been rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted in the last four consecutive inspections.
