Welcome from the Principal
Our school, affectionately known as Portland Palace, is more than a place of learning—it's a community and a second home. As Principal, I promise our students academically strong, kind, expert teachers and caring pastoral staff; they deserve nothing less than the best.
Located in the heart of Worksop, we serve a diverse and vibrant community. We are one of the most oversubscribed schools in the region, chosen by families for our strong pastoral care, high standards, and exceptional culture of learning.
Our mission places students at the centre of every decision. We are driven by the belief that our children should feel safe, loved, and seen. We are recognised nationally for both our ethos and culture and as an IQM School of Excellence.
If you're considering joining us, know that Portland is more than just a “Good” school; it’s a place where people matter, success is shared, and joy is found. We would love to welcome you to be a part of this special community.

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
