School Day
"Relational practice runs through the core of the school."
Outstanding Residential Ofsted, February 2026
Assemblies are held weekly for Primary and Secondary Learners in their own class groups and cover a range of topics in line with our Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural (SMSC) curriculum. Learners will sometimes deliver topics themselves within class groups following schemes based on curriculum topics.
"Your email has made me cry and given me such a proud Mam moment. I’m not used to receiving positive feedback at all. Thank you so much! ‘C’ loves his new school and we are also seeing a positive difference in him!"
