The school was opened in 2010 when it's two predecessors opted to merge and pool resources to ensure that all students from the local community could access state of the art provisions. Since the appointment of the new Head, there have been a number of targeted changes across the curriculum and improvements in standards of teaching and learning has paid dividends in raises in attainment across all subjects with the school exceeding the governments floor standards for progress and attainment.

We would like the incoming teacher to be confident with RM and Product Design at GCSE and anyone with experience in Graphics and/or 3D Art would be desirable.
