Our mission is to provide you with the opportunity to realise your ambitions and be the most successful version of yourself. We believe that this can only happen if we work together.

As a school and Sixth Form team, we will:

PROVIDE A HIGH-QUALITY STUDENT EXPERIENCE

Both in terms of the equality of teaching and learning that you receive in the classroom and the level of guidance and support you receive.

PROVIDE A VARIED STUDENT EXPERIENCE

High quality teaching and learning in lessons and a rich extra-curricular programme, helps us develop resilient, excellent students, as well as confident, articulate, talented young adults.

PROVIDE SUPPORT WHERE NECESSARY

Targeted academic and pastoral support is provided to ensure you develop the necessary skills to develop as independent learners and employees of the future.

It is imperative you also recognise that you and your approach to life in the Sixth Form is vital for your success.
