“We bought our son to an open day after a recommendation from friends he absolutely loved it, came out and said he'd love to go to school there if possible.”
“The event was incredibly well organised, and the enthusiasm for the school shone through at every level - from the Headteacher’s inspiring welcome to the warm and passionate interactions we had with staff and pupils alike. It was truly infectious."
“We were particularly impressed with the students that showed us around on the open day. Very informative and a credit to the school.”
"Our daughter came away feeling genuinely excited about the possibility of joining the school. She particularly loved how friendly and welcoming all the pupils were, and she was thrilled to take part in the hands-on experiments in chemistry and biology. The climbing wall was also a first and a firm favourite."
