Together, we are committed to ensuring that everyone in our school is happy, feels safe and is valued. We are full and over-subscribed, with 1120 students at the College aged 11-18 who are nurtured through their education in a purposeful and caring community ethos based on respect for all. With our students at the heart of all that we do, as a team, we aim to encourage each person to uphold both our College values of Honesty, Excellence, Ambition, Respect and Teamwork and the fundamental British values of democracy, rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance for those with different faiths and beliefs.
