Our aim is to inspire our young people to be their very best and go on to achieve beyond what they thought possible. Our students value that our school is different. We specialise in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and have industry standard facilities in these areas. We have a large "outstanding" sixth form which prepares and equips our young adults for successful futures. Our school community is diverse and underpinned by mutual respect. We celebrate the range of backgrounds and cultures and respect each other. We strongly believe that we fully equip our learners to successfully compete for places in Higher/Further Education or in the increasingly competitive job market with the skills and personal qualities that we develop in them. Our students are articulate and have strong characters, these are traits that we encourage starting when they begin their transition to us as children in Year 6 until they leave us as adults in Year 13. Our careers programme is different from the norm. From Year 7 we inspire our young people to think about their futures. They engage with well-known employers, inspirational speakers and a range of universities.
