Our new development, completed in spring 2022, has brought significant benefits to the whole school; with increased and upgraded teaching space, an enlarged and more flexible hall, specialist areas for teaching music, and upgraded kitchens. We also have a new medical room and more space for some of our small groups and 1:1 teaching.  

We kept a blog whilst the building development was progressing, which you will find below.
