To be ranked as the highest-performing non-selective school in Warwickshire for a second consecutive year is a remarkable accomplishment and one that reflects the hard work, determination and ambition of our young people. These results are the product of a genuine partnership between students, staff and families. Our students should be incredibly proud of what they have achieved, and I would like to congratulate every member of staff who has contributed to their success, as well as the parents and carers who support our young people every day."

We firmly believe that excellent examination results and outstanding personal development go hand in hand. Our staff are passionate about ensuring every student is challenged, supported and inspired to achieve their very best. These outcomes demonstrate the impact of that commitment over time and reinforce our position as one of the leading comprehensive schools in the region."
