Values and Vision
Mander Portman Woodward Cambridge and its two partner schools are educational environments with the main aim of equipping fifth and sixth form students to get into the UK’s top universities. It is a place with a friendly and thriving atmosphere and a culture of enjoying hard work and achieving success. An out-of-classroom informality contrasting with the intensive teaching approach of the classroom makes sure that all students are comfortable learning at the school and reaching high levels of success in the process.
Ofsted
