About the school
“Central to our ethos is the belief that how students learn matters just as much as what they learn. This is best summed up in our core values that students should ‘Work hard, be kind and choose wisely.' We believe academic success is best achieved when students feel safe, happy and cared for.”
Established school - open since before 2017. Became an academy in September 2017, continuing the school that was already there.
