Y7 - Y11 Admissions

Choosing the right secondary school is one of the most important decisions for any parent. Every child deserves an environment where they can thrive, build self-confidence, and grow into their best selves. At the heart of our school are the core values of aspiration, knowledge, and respect, guiding our holistic approach to nurturing each student. We believe in balancing academic excellence, co-curricular activities, and pastoral care to provide a well-rounded education that supports every aspect of a child’s development.
