As parents or carers, choosing a school for your child can be challenging. Most of us have been through the process ourselves so we understand. We’d like to help you and we'd love to meet you. We'd be delighted to walk you around the school, answer any questions and help through any questions around the admissions process if needed.
We are a well-established school. We work to prepare our children for secondary school of which there are many to choose from locally. We are well placed to support families with these choices as we work with and have established relationships with all secondary schools in the county and have been continually developing this for many years.
Our children are well supported, are challenged and inspired by our excellent staff, who aim to provide an extraordinary education that brings out the best in all of our young people, regardless of their ability or background. By being a part of Extend Learning Academies Network we work very closely together with our other schools across the area. Because of this we have access to large sports, cultural and arts events. Working together, our teachers are able to consistently broaden their skills in foundation subjects such as art, music and sports/PE.

Our headteacher , Heidi Hudd, is always happy to welcome prospective families for a personal guided tour of our facilities and discuss the aspirations you have for your child.
