    Well done to the U19A Netball team for an absolutely amazing end to the season and for many their school Netball careers. The team were crowned ISNC National Champs on Friday and followed it up by taking the Sisters in Sport National title today. The girls showed such strength of character to win both the semi and final by golden goal. Well done to all the players & Mrs Wates, Mrs Titmuss- Morris, Mr Burgess for all the hard work this season!

    Clearly an academically driven department, it’s refreshing to meet the Head of Sixth, Martin Walker, and hear that the students get the support and encouragement to find and follow their own path whatever that may be – from setting up their own business or doing an apprenticeship.

    The school delivers on its motto of ‘Developing Remarkable People’ – students are notably engaging and enjoy taking part in everything the school has to offer.
