As proud members of the Bourne Education Trust, we benefit from rich collaboration with both primary and secondary colleagues, which continually strengthens our provision and supports high aspirations for every child.
Our school council has written our mission statement: Dream, Believe, Work, Achieve. “If you can dream it, you will believe it; if you believe it, you work for it; if you work for it, you will achieve it…” This sentiment underpins all we do at Pyrcroft Grange and reflects the ambitious, nurturing culture that permeates the school.

Digital technology plays a central role in enriching our curriculum and preparing pupils for the next stage of their educational journey. We use technology purposefully to enhance teaching, promote engagement, and personalise learning. Digital tools support pupils to explore ideas creatively, collaborate with peers, and develop the digital literacy skills essential for life in a modern world.
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.
