Specialist Arts College with Outstanding Features

"The curriculum and the quality of care, guidance and support are outstanding" 

Ofsted 2008

Our vision is that learning and the learner should be at the centre of all school endeavour.  We strive to ensure team commitment from pupils, parents, governors and all staff to a vision that has high expectations of what the individual can achieve, values learning and determines that we can develop positive, constructive relationships based on mutual respect.

As an 11 to 14, mixed gender, Community School we believe learning is of primary importance and should be challenging and enjoyable. We are a stepping stone for pupils, guiding them to the next stage of their education and eventually to the world of employment.  Through commitment, praise, support and trust we encourage our pupils to attain their maximum levels of achievement.

Interactive English class in the Arts TheatreWe are a school of opportunity, challenge and vision, fully committed to preparing our pupils for life in the twenty-first century. If you are considering sending your child here, we would be delighted to hear from you and would welcome the chance to meet with you and show you how we work with you and your child to realise their true potential.
