The teaching here is unique because the teachers are amazing and want your child to succeed. They come in on Saturdays, and on holidays just to make sure your child succeeds. Student benefit from the teachers consistently trying to help them by ensuring them that they have all the resources they need. If your child does not succeed and the school has done everything to help, then it is your fault, not the schools because your child cannot be bothered to learn or try to learn and that is a lesson that needs to be taught at a young age. 9/10, this school is better than the surrounding secondary schools.
