About
School overview

Overall, our ambition is to ensure that every pupil is well prepared for the next stage of their lives, be that finding meaningful employment, continued education, supported or independent living. Our Post 16 provision formally opened in 2014 and now has nearly 60 pupils in years 12, 13 and 14. Our sixth form pupils pursue a wide range of pathways designed to support progression to meaningful employment. We value our partnerships, but most important of all is our partnership with parents and carers. We truly believe that no child should be left behind and we work tirelessly with parents to ensure that we achieve this for every pupil. That's great and all, and we commend you for pushing through with it. Unfortunately we no longer offer support for IE; it hasn't received a major update since 2015 and Microsoft are dropping support for it later in the year. If you're using Windows 10 and want to stick with a built in browser, please consider switching to Edge. Or, if you really want to enjoy the internet properly we strongly recommend downloading Google Chrome here .
