School Performance

We are a high-performing and rapidly improving school, but we are about much more than exam results. We know that our pupils will be judged on many things as they go through life so we celebrate all of the achievements of our young people. Our students are all-rounders experiencing success in performance, sports, outdoor learning, enterprise, community service and much more.

As of 2022 we are one of the top two schools in Salford and in some measures have out-performed all Salford schools.  We are the most improved school in the city.
