We are incredibly proud to have a positive and engaged student body and a dedicated and talented team of staff and governors.

We have high standards of Academy dress and have clear expectations on punctuality, attendance and behaviour.

Our supportive approach to developing the whole young person is delivered through our Pastoral Support System which responds to the wider support needs that children living in the modern world may develop.

The Sixth Form College is focussed on providing high quality teaching and care to secure the best achievement and outcomes for all. Within the Sixth Form there is a dedicated suite of teaching rooms and facilities.
