Headteacher's welcome

Welcome to our school.

Since our opening in 1972, our school has evolved significantly, moving across three different sites, with multiple headteachers and hundreds of students passing through our doors. Today, we find ourselves at a vibrant and exciting stage in our journey, marked by exceptional growth and sustained improvements in all areas.

We are proud to be recognised as the number one school in the UK for sustained year-on-year improvement in outcomes since 2019, a remarkable achievement that reflects the dedication and hard work of both our staff and students. With record attendance figures, we now rank in the top 1% of secondary schools nationally.

At the heart of our philosophy is a genuine passion for learning. Guided by our CCS7 Values, we strive to create an environment where exemplary behaviour is modelled, effort is recognised, and achievement is celebrated. In doing so, we inspire students to take pride in their work and motivate them to reach their highest potential.

We provide our students with a balanced, challenging, and supportive learning environment. Our staff are deeply committed to delivering engaging lessons while continually working to raise achievement and foster a love of learning.

The relationships between staff and students are built on mutual respect and understanding, creating a positive and inclusive school culture. The enjoyable atmosphere in our classrooms ensures a productive and welcoming environment for everyone.

Our commitment to equality is integral to everything we do. We embrace students from all backgrounds and beliefs, creating an inclusive space where diversity is celebrated, and the individual needs of each student are met, whether they are exceptionally talented or require additional support to succeed.

Our ambition is for every student to leave our school as a knowledgeable, confident, and well-rounded individual. We aim for them to be highly-skilled learners who have achieved their full potential and are ready to embark on a fulfilling and exciting future, fully prepared to meet the challenges that lie ahead.
