“Pupils receive an exceptional education at this school. Pupils flourish because the school has high academic ambitions for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (Send). The school creates a thirst for learning and is driven by its motto ‘intrepidus’: boldly encouraging pupils to take risks without fear. This ethos builds both resilience and creativity … The school provides an array of opportunities to develop pupils’ character. Pupils engage in fundraising activities, support the local food bank and take part in a wide range of trips and clubs. Many pupils take on leadership responsibilities by becoming prefects, joining the school council or becoming ‘student technicians’.”
