About the school
“We are a small school able to offer a highly personal and individual level of care, security and personalised learning. Fortunately, we are also part of a larger Multi Academy Trust able to access the range of resources often associated with a much larger establishment.”
Established school - open since before 1998. Became an academy in September 2013, continuing the school that was already there.
