Crispin is a popular school with a strong reputation. We unashamedly have high expectations of all members of our community and we believe in challenging and supporting students to achieve their very best. Visitors regularly refer to our students and colleagues very positively. Relationships between staff and students are a strength of the school and colleagues are committed to providing every opportunity for students to have a broad experience and to be successful. We are committed to educating the whole child to ensure they enter adulthood as happy, supported young people with a love for learning. There is a sharp focus on learning and students receive excellent support. At all times we seek to be a compassionate institution.

It is important to state that Crispin has a very strong safeguarding culture which we would expect potential colleagues to wholeheartedly support.

We have a wide-ranging curriculum and have recently expanded the opportunities for students. We offer two Languages, a range of Arts and Technology options and have recently introduced new examination courses in areas such as Business, Engineering, Health and Social Care and Sport. Students have the opportunity to study Philosophy and our popular new course, Curriculum for Life. We have a high uptake of EBacc subjects but this sits alongside a commitment for students to retain a considerable degree of choice over which courses to follow. There are also a wide range of enrichment activities for students ranging from residential visits to school productions; sports to music; an enrichment week to work experience. We have recently expanded our ‘Employability’ programme considerably and we are also fortunate to have a successful Alumni Scheme.

We are proud of our vertical House system which is comprised of four Houses (Corvus, Falco, Sturnus and Tyto). This system allows for a wide range of opportunities for students from collaboration to competition, student leadership to support. All colleagues are members of one of the Houses.

We are fortunate to have a well-equipped site which includes extensive grounds, a range of curriculum area blocks and an astroturf pitch. We are also extremely fortunate to have opened a new purpose-built Innovation Hub in November 2020. This has been the most substantial development of the site since the opening of Crispin.

Crispin is due to become part of the Wessex Learning Trust on 1 March 2023. We have already been working closely with the Trust and this will offer a range of opportunities for the successful candidate.
