Most recently, two new music practice rooms have been added. A full National Curriculum is taught together with French from Year 5. Pupils follow a semi-specialist timetable using 'excellent facilities and skilled teaching staff'. In recognition of its 'outstanding' sports programme it was recently awarded a Sports Mark.
