Destinations at the end of Year 11

Ninety per cent of our students continue in education after Year 11. Two-thirds choose to stay with us at Sixth Form.

Our results truly reflect our school-wide commitment to teaching and learning excellence and our dedication to the individual.” Will Morgan, Headteacher
