Values and vision
The secondary school's long-standing mission is to provide all students with "roots and wings". These are the roots of an academic education grounded in literacy and numeracy, and the wings of self-confidence and self-esteem that allow them to flourish in both the local community and modern world.
Marshalls Park School values its status as a performing arts college and a specialised dance studio was opened in 2010. The work of the drama department is aimed at providing students with opportunities to participate in high-quality, rich and varied experiences both inside and outside the classroom. Students study a variety of scripts, texts and poems throughout their drama education at Marshalls Park.
