The school adopts a genuine whole-child philosophy throughout the school, focusing upon challenging young people through curriculum breadth and depth, with a high degree of active and creative learning, and a wide-ranging co-curricular programme, all supported by the highest quality of pastoral care.

time, offering many wider opportunities for growth and development.

All teachers are supported by excellent state-of-the-art facilities and good resources.
