Dom Pinto
Principal
I am passionate about improving the life chances for our young people so that they have more keys to more doors in the future. However, appreciating that grades are only one piece of the jigsaw for a well-rounded education. We will never compromise on standards and have high expectations – part of our values is represented by compassion and academic rigour – we will challenge our students to be the best version of themselves, whilst walking alongside them to help achieve their goals.

Pippa Langston
Deputy Principal- Teaching & Learning
I am driven by the belief that education is a transformative force, shaping the future of young people with both the tools and mindset necessary for success. We work together with students to equip them with the skills and knowledge they need to be successful learners whilst also ensuring they develop their experiences beyond the curriculum to achieve their personal goals. By creating a dynamic and inclusive learning environment, students are encouraged to develop the resilience and independence required to allow a smooth transition into their chosen career paths, alongside the adaptability to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Damian Windle
Assistant Principal
I strongly believe that education can fundamentally change lives. Whether a student ends up at university, on an apprenticeship or in employment, education is the key to gaining these opportunities. No matter what your background or prior experience is, here we will give you the tools and the experiences for a successful future. The transformation that students make during the two or three years they spend with us is truly awe-inspiring and it is a privilege to support our young people in becoming the people they are meant to be.
