An assessor from the Association for Physical Education observed lessons and spoke with staff and students recently. We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded a Quality Mark Distinction for Physical Education School Sport and Physical Activity. The panel were so impressed with the documentation provided that this is being used by the DfE as a model of good practice.

We are pleased to announce that we have achieved Continuing Excellence in the Better Health at Work Awards.  This recognises the importance of organisations sustaining the progress they have made during their participation in the Award and encourages them to use their experience to support others.

Further information can be found on the Better Health at Work Award website.

Congratulations to our year 11 students on their results!

There have been some excellent results in a number of different subject areas including the core subjects of English and maths. We are particularly pleased with our triple science results with a significant number of students achieving the top grades 9 – 7. Our design technology, art, music and sport results are also extremely pleasing with some very positive progress scores. Obtaining good GCSE results is not easy and this is the first year since 2019 that students have actually taken formal exams. Our students have worked extremely hard in the various subjects despite having an extremely disrupted time since year 9. They’ve had lockdowns, self-isolation periods and various other Covid measures to deal with and throughout this, they have shown great resilience. They should be very proud of their achievements.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our year 11 students for their hard work and dedication to enable them to achieve these results. I would also like to thank our staff too. They have worked tirelessly and I am enormously grateful to them for their hard work.
