About the school
“Since my arrival as Principal in 2019, our school has undergone a campaign of rapid improvement. Our curriculum is ambitious, with teachers and subject leaders confident in the ways they enable students to make excellent progress.”
Established school - open since before 2012. Became an academy in March 2012, continuing the school that was already there.
