Situated in beautiful West Cornwall the school has a long-standing well-deserved reputation for its caring approach and an ethos which encourages, supports and develops students of all abilities – from those with specific learning difficulties right through to the most able, gifted and talented.
We have always ensured the standard of care has never fallen, whilst the standard of achievement has continued rising to the consistently high levels seen today. We do not believe the two are mutually exclusive; by focusing upon each and every individual’s needs to enable them to flourish, the climate for learning will be enhanced, the whole school community will grow and the outcomes will only ever continue upwards.
