About the School

This is a highly successful, inclusive and dynamic place to learn and grow, with a clear ethos that balances care and challenge and educates the whole child—heart, mind, body and spirit. The culture is framed by values of respect, integrity, kindness, aspiration and resilience, and the community is in an exciting phase of development supported by local authority investment.

The Science Faculty

You’ll join a cohesive, supportive department that values hands‑on learning. The faculty benefits from well‑equipped laboratories, strong technician support, and a practical curriculum model that builds engagement and scientific thinking. Staff collaborate closely to drive high standards and enrich the offer through STEM opportunities and practical activities.
