Paving the way to success
We are very proud of the solid foundation we give our pupils before they progress on to the next stage in their education.
Our children consistently receive offers from the most prestigious schools in the local area, including the offer of scholarships and awards.
In 2024, our Year 6 leavers achieved a number of scholarships including drama and art, and offers from their first choice of senior schools.
Competition for places at these schools is fierce, with only one place for every 3 pupils sitting the exam in many cases. Our children's brilliant results demonstrate how effectively our individualised approach to learning and exam preparation, supports all our pupils in achieving their very best.

Every year, our Headteacher assesses pupils based on a range of criteria and information provided by their teachers and makes a personalised recommendation about the most appropriate next school for them. He works closely with parents to help each child achieve their potential and gain a place at their secondary school of choice.
We also support children through this process by offering early morning exam clubs to help prepare for the 11+ test as well as selective examinations and interviews.
