A major building programme has recently been completed.  This has provided a state of the art Drama Studio, a superb Sports Hall and Fitness Suite, new accommodation for Art and Design and refurbished accommodation for Design Technology and Science.

In Years 7 and 11 the school aims to provide a broad, balanced, relevant and differentiated curriculum embracing the requirements of the National Curriculum.

In Years 7 and 8 students follow courses in English, Drama, Mathematics, Science, French, Technology, Geography, History, Religious Education, Physical Education, Art and Design, Music and Information Skills.  In Year 9 Careers is added.  Able linguists also study German in Years 8 and 9 instead of one period of PE.

In Key Stage 4 a broad core is maintained, all students studying English, Mathematics, Science, French, History or Geography, Physical Education, RE, ICT, Careers and Personal and Social Education.   Most study a Technology subject but some are disapplied in this area to follow a Music course.  An Open Option allows students to opt for an additional language, Art and Design, GCSE PE, Drama or Business Studies.
