About Us
We are a non-denominational, mixed-gender school based in a new building with top-class facilities. We serve a diverse community, with two-fifths of our pupils receiving pupil premium funding.
Our values—Aim High, Have Integrity, Be Kind, and Model Determination—guide us. Our curriculum is designed backwards from university readiness, ensuring the best in every subject discipline.
We support our staff with coaching and tailored professional development, regardless of career stage. Our extended school day (finishing at 4 pm four days a week and earlier on Wednesday) allows us to offer a broad curriculum and enrichment activities, with no after-school meetings. Our staff say: ‘All staff are incredibly supportive and positive, and it is a great environment to work in.'
