About Arden
Arden is an exceptional school because it combines a strong family ethos with high academic standards; it sits at the heart of the community and is at the peak of academic excellence. Situated just minutes off Junction 5 of the M42 and only 3 miles from the town of Solihull, visitors will be welcomed by our confident, articulate, proud and caring students. Our recent Ofsted report spoke about the culture of ‘exceptionally high aspirations that permeate the school’ and ‘the positive relationships between staff and pupils’ where ‘teachers teach individuals, not classes’. Our focus is to provide opportunity and success for our students, so we are always striving for better.
There are 1500 students in Years 7-11 and 300 students within our Sixth Form. The school offers a rich and varied curriculum that provides challenge for all students and all abilities. There is huge range of co-curricular opportunities offered to students with activities ranging from sport, music, Duke of Edinburgh, Eco club, craft club and chess club as well as a host of academic clubs.
Arden is the lead school in a hugely successful trust that will provide you with many opportunities for collaboration and development.
