Head Teacher's Message

Headteacher Samantha Jefferson describes a coaching system that allows staff to know each student well as individuals—their likes and dislikes, strengths and insecurities, interests, pets and favourite TV programmes—and to support them on good and bad days; the relationships formed in Coaching foster a sense of belonging; the school aims to provide an outstanding education in a safe, happy environment, and Ofsted described their work as Outstanding.
