About the school
“We have the very highest aims for all of our children, and have in place an ambitious school curriculum that challenges our pupils, encouraging them to make connections in learning and enabling them, as they grow, to be critical and evaluative thinkers.”
Open since 1997. Became an academy in December 2012, continuing the school that was already there.
