Charters School

Charters School is a 11 – 18 mixed comprehensive school with over 1700 students with 390 in the Sixth Form.  We believe in a holistic approach to education providing excellent opportunities in and outside the traditional learning that inspires individuals in their academic and social development.

Our approach ensures that individuals are successful in their educational journey with us enabling individuals of all abilities to thrive and reach their personal goals, each year students take up places at Oxford and Cambridge as well as international universities and high-level apprenticeships in the local area and further afield.

Our attainment levels at GCSE are significantly above national comparisons with progress figures the same.  At ‘A’ level 56% of grades were A*-B in 2024.  The school headline figures can be found HERE with validated performance data on the DfE performance tables HERE. The outcomes at both A level and GCSE are due to the hardwork of our staff and students.

Professional development and staff well-being are a high priority for us.  We invest heavily in the development of our staff as well as support mechanisms.  We have extensive staff voice systems along with employee assistance scheme that provides access to a private GP, physiotherapist, and counselling support along with other benefits.
