This progress from Key Stage 2 to GCSE has a transformative impact on our pupils’ life chances and last year, over 60% of pupils leaving us went on to Russell Group universities to study a range of academic subjects.

Religious Studies is part of a dynamic learning community that values outstanding teaching, innovative practice and meaningful enrichment. The department benefits from excellent resourcing and a culture that encourages both staff and students to engage with contemporary debates and scholarship. Deliberate op
