  • able to make a difference to the life chances of all our students and passionately buy into the school's 'can do' culture
  • willing to embrace the change agenda including the use of new technologies
  • be a trendsetter and risk taker

As a school we work in a positive and supportive environment with learning and teaching at the heart of all that we do. We have committed and talented staff who aim to inspire everyone in our school community with a love of learning and, by doing so, maximising students' life chances. We provide all our staff with a laptop computer and a full professional development and induction programme, both of which have been judged to be outstanding.
