We have a dedicated science lab that is used for both Biology and Chemistry lessons. We follow the Cambridge International Curriculum. We offer IGCSEs, AS Levels and A Levels. Our results are truly excellent, we have a 100% pass rate in all 3 sciences. Pupils from Year 5 upwards, bring their own device to school and we fully embed Technology for Learning. One main role is to develop the understanding of English into every lesson, as the vast majority of our students speak English as an additional language, whilst ensuring we deliver content in a clear fashion to enable students to gain great qualifications.

Our pupils thrive here. This is a happy, hardworking school. Pupils treat adults with admiration and respect. Teaching here is a joy, but it is expected that you will uphold our high standards for students' wellbeing, as well as promote academic excellence.

As a small school, all our staff need to be an integral part of the team. Our teachers and support staff are incredibly hardworking, dedicated and kind.
