We welcomed back our Class of 2024 to receive their GCSE certificates, celebrate our students with an awards ceremony, and enjoy three fantastic musical performances from some of our current students. #GCSE #ClassOf24

60 of our Year 11 Geography students visited Stratford in East London yesterday. They spent their time assessing regeneration in the area post 2012 Olympics, comparing the Olympic Village and Westfield with Stratford High Street using a variety of field work techniques. #reallifelearning

It's all about experiments today! Year 10 Latin students learning about experimental archaeology, Year 12 Biologists conduction their first assessed practical experience and Year 8 Food Technology experimenting with potato cooking techniques! #gettingtogripswithlearning #experimental

What a fabulously musical lunchtime we have had! Our Year 10 GCSE Music students held the 1st of their Lunchtime Recitals to an audience packed full of students and staff. A hugely varied programme of music ranging from Mozart, Monti, the Planet White T's and all sorts in between! #liveperformance #musicatlunch

A great morning's work creating flavoured cupcakes in Food Technology and making lampbases from scratch in DT. Great hands on learning! #learninglifeskills

A great day of hands on learning in school on Wednesday with the first of our work ready events as Year 9 took part in the Stock Market Challenge! Fantastic buzz about the room as the whole year group worked collaboratively in teams getting to grips with the 'live' stock market!

So lovely to meet so many new prospective new families at our Open Evening last night! A great buzz around the school as our future Year 7 students explored our school and got their first taste of our facilities. #futurelearners #welcometoourcommunity

We are so looking forward to throwing our doors wide on Monday 7th october for our Open Evening. Come along and see what we're all about between 6pm and 8pm - no need to book. We look forward to meeting you!

Our Year 7 students might only have been with us for a month now, but what a month it has been! Today they are continuing to build their musical repertoire with Ode to Joy by Beethoven under the guidance of Mrs Bryant! #musicfeedsthesoul #musicteachers #loveoflearning
