"The school enables students to learn to live and work independently."

"Pupils’ personal development is a strength of the school. It is a priority. By ensuring pupils learn important life skills, the school prepares pupils very well for their next steps and
adulthood. For example, students in the sixth form know that learning how to cook and clean through the ‘independent living skills curriculum’ will enable them to live independently at university"
