A forward looking school

Your child has his or her own individual interests, skills and gifts. Developing these on the journey from childhood to young adulthood is a privilege that we take seriously.

We promote high standards of behaviour grounded in the traditional values of honesty and mutual respect. In this school we insist upon good manners and good uniform. We are strict because we believe that young people need boundaries and guidance. The quality of relationships and the high expectations we have are liberating not limiting.

We believe in our young people and empower them to see their own potential, so that they can achieve more than they thought possible. As a specialist performing Arts College, we are well placed to deliver the very best for your child.

Our aims are simple and hopefully mirror yours too:

• To enable all students to realise their full potential;
• To have the highest expectations for their future;
• For them to enjoy a fulfilling life.

Our Vision

We believe that all children and young people have the right to be healthy, happy and safe; to be loved, valued and respected; and to have high aspirations for their future.

Outcomes

For our young people as they reach adulthood, we want them to:

• Be and feel loved by their families and valued and respected by their communities; to have a sense of belonging; and have an ability to develop and sustain positive relationships
• Be and feel equipped to make life choices and to take responsibility for themselves; have a sense of achievement; and have positive expectations for their future and the contribution they can make to the well-being of others
• Have the best possible health and development and behave in a way that enhances their health and well-being
• Be and feel safe and equipped to make informed decisions about risks

Our School Motto

"The purpose of life is a life of purpose."

Please join us in our joint quest to give your child his or her best possible life chances.
