About the school
“Our VOICE Values were introduced in September 2023 and they built upon the existing, well-established, core values of community, opportunity and excellence. We have augmented these with two additional values of vitality and independence. These words combine to form our V.O.I.C.E.”
Established school - open since before 2011. Became an academy in May 2011, continuing the school that was already there.
