We run a very successful Duke of Edinburgh’s Award scheme, with many students achieving their Gold Award.

We have a long-established student leadership structure in the Sixth Form. Each year, we appoint a Head Boy and Head Girl, along with a Deputy Head Boy and Deputy Head Girl. They are supported by a team of House Captains, School Captains, and Subject Ambassadors. Each of the six Houses has a House Captain and Vice-Captain, who work alongside the (staff) Head of House to plan and organise student participation in the many House events held throughout the year.

there are many opportunities for you to become involved in activities that may be less obvious, but equally important. These include being a mentor to Year 7 students, peer mentoring within your academic subjects, reading with younger students, helping out in lessons with the lower school, developing communication skills by working at local junior schools in their after-school clubs and sitting on school committees.

School teams are run in many sports and have included rugby, football, basketball, netball, cross-country, golf and athletics over the years.

Music and Drama are very popular choices for many students and various school bands and ensembles are well supported by the Sixth Form
