Each department has its own specialist teaching area and other facilities include a brand new teaching block for English, two ICT rooms, a creative arts room, gym, squash and tennis courts. Pupils regularly stage dramatic and musical productions. Ski trips, cultural visits and foreign exchanges are held throughout the year and pupils are also encouraged to perform some kind of community service during their time at school.
