We opened in 2016 at the top of one of our primary schools and moved into a new interim purpose-built site with excellent facilities in September 2018. As of September 2022, the school is at capacity in its current site with 450 students from Years 7-11.
We have a strong educational ethos 'To Live, Share and Celebrate a Love of Learning' and we embed this positive ethos by aligning everything that we do with four key principles:
Curriculum at the Centre: we remain 'obsessed' with what we teach our students
Exemplary Behaviour: we have clear principles informing behaviour and conduct to achieve the highest standards of behaviour for learning
Exceptional Teaching: we have a clear pedagogical strategy and support every member of staff to be able to delivery consistently excellent teaching
Valuing every child: we work tirelessly to alleviate barriers to individual student achievement
The school is made up of committed and aspirational staff led by visionary and experienced trustees and senior leaders. Staff development is a key priority, and we boast a unique collaborative approach where, through regular meetings, senior leaders support all staff to take ownership for their own development, both by providing high quality guidance and by promoting teachers to read widely, make research-informed decisions, as well as attend tailored CPD.
