We look forward to welcoming our Year 10 families this evening at 4:30pm for our Welcome to Year 10 Evening.

This is a great opportunity to find out more about the year ahead, meet key staff, and learn how we can work together to support students as they begin their KS4 journey.

We look forward to seeing you there! 😊

Take a look at our wonderful West Site! 📸

We would like to say a huge thank you to the volunteers from Johnson Matthey who spent time with us over the summer helping to paint and refresh parts of the site.

The transformation looks fantastic, and we are incredibly grateful for your support and hard work.
