Good morning! We have been busy inspecting and gritting the site this morning, and we are open as usual. We do recommend that those students who would usually enter the site via the MC gate enter the site through alternative gates as that path can be particularly icy. We have gritted the path, but for extra caution please consider using the main gate or CS gate. Please proceed with caution in all areas.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all our families a very Happy New Year. We hope students have enjoyed a restful and enjoyable break, and we look forward to welcoming them back to College tomorrow at the usual time. Due to the current cold and icy conditions, we ask that students allow extra time for their journeys into College, as roads and paths may be slippery and alternative routes may be needed. Although the College site will be gritted this evening and aga

The secret is finally out! Our very own Jake G features in a new Netflix docuseries, 'The Next Act'. In it, Simon Cowell (yes, THE Simon Cowell) tries to find the next big boy band.

We look forward to seeing any festive jumpers on Thursday!
