But to us, education isn't just about grades; it's about creativity, it's about sport, it's about friendship, it's about new opportunities, it's about fun. Above all, it's about Life.

We encourage students to match their academic attainment with personal integrity, physical fitness, aesthetic sensitivity, emotional maturity and an open approach to spirituality based on broadly Christian values.
We are committed to working with other schools and organisations for mutual benefit and to promote the achievement and welfare of children generally. We strive to adopt best practice in consulting members of staff and in promoting their interests as employees.
