13 Dec 2011 15:51:04 GMT

The new School Admissions Code, which will effect admissions in September 2013, stipulates that schools must inform parents of the outcome of tests BEFORE parents submit their Local Authority CAF (Common Application Form). In view of this we have revised our admissions timetable and wanted to give parents early notification of new key dates for entry September 2013. Please see Admissions Information for details.

Urgent - change of date for Senior Instrumental Concert

1 Nov 2011 15:15:39 GMT

Please be advised that due to a larger amount of unforseen Oxford and Cambridge interviews for our Year 13 students, clashing with our concert date, we have moved the Senior Instrumental Concert date to Wednesday 14th December at 7.30pm, so our students are not disadvantaged. All tickets already ordered will remain valid for the new date and do not need to be reordered.
