Our rich cultural life allows pupils to express and develop the flair that will distinguish them as adults. We were awarded Humanities College status in 2007.
We have a highly developed pastoral system that actively offers support from Year 7 all the way through to University entrance. On top of the school's academic focus, there is an awareness of the world outside.
