An annual Faraday Challenge takes place every year here at the school, involving 4 local schools - 40+ children and this is a STEM challenge day.
Our evaluation shows an increased sense of community among pupils at both our school and the local primary schools. Both of these events are run without charge and we supply our own teaching staff to cover both events.

Music Partnerships:
Annually there is a musical event called ‘Come and Sing’, where 2 of our music teachers spend 10 weeks visiting up to 24 local primary schools and working with the children to prepare for a combined concert at the end of the term. This could involve up to 500 children and all parents are invited to support the event. We provide 2 minibuses to collect some of the children and provide a concert venue free of charge.
Sports Partnerships:
In addition to hosting a variety of tournaments (rugby /netball/cricket /hockey) for the local schools, we also offer an excellent outreach provision to local clubs. This includes cricket coaching, "Superstar" programme of multi-sports for local schools, clubs and individuals and a pentathlon/laser shooting/athletics club for local children.
