We are an outstanding 11-16 community, comprehensive school in the city of Leicester with approximately 1560 students on roll currently, and are heavily over-subscribed every year with more first choice applications than places available. Students come from very diverse ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds, which contributes to our unique ethos.
We have a fantastic team of staff who go to great lengths to ensure every child can and does succeed in education. As a school, we value effort above all else with students; all can achieve, and they do! The staff work very effectively together and achieve excellent outcomes for our students, of which we are very proud. Even more pleasing though, are the superb relationships we have in the school, between all, which make it a great place to work, and an excellent place to begin or continue your career.
Our science department is high-achieving, with the whole team, teaching and support staff, working very effectively together. Science occupies the whole of the second floor of the building, and resources are outstanding, with two large prep rooms and plenty of storage space. The department has lapsafes which can be wheeled into any of the ten labs for computer-based work. Practicals are built into schemes of learning and are a key part of the learning process.
