School Information

Formed out of a merger of two former grammar schools, we are a Catholic School which welcomes all. We got a record five Oxbridge places last year, but we are equally good with the less able pupils. Extra-curricular activities and pastoral care are central to our ethos. We have a mixture of historic buildings and modern facilities, with a number of new developments opened in recent years.
