At A-Level 26% of all grades were A* - A and 50% A* - B. The school converted to academy status on 1 November 2011 and is part of the Vanguard Learning Trust which also includes one other secondary and three primary schools.
We are well known for high academic standards, good behaviour, and our strong community spirit including a strong house system with students leading their peers. “Pupils benefit from excellent relationships with each other and with staff.

We offer you:
- A well established and well respected Continual Professional Development program.
