This outstanding school provides high-quality education at every stage of the students' journey. Since opening, they have grown to become one of the most successful schools in the borough and have gained an excellent reputation for the learning-focused education offered to their students. They have a happy and diverse community that strives to succeed in everything they do. They have a sister school located a couple of miles away, and they provide the blueprint of success that this school aspires to.
Whilst the high-quality lessons and enrichment make this school a rewarding place to attend or to work in, perhaps the most unusual thing about the school is the quality of the relationships you will find. Students like and respect each other and value their opportunities to learn. They get on exceptionally well with staff, as adults and students work together in a productive and trusting atmosphere. Students thrive by being given a high degree of responsibility and this leads to the exceptional behavior they are so well known for. Student leadership is at the heart of their philosophy with student curriculum advisers, lesson observers, and interviewers working along with a more traditional student council.
