‘We are extremely happy that Cornelius Vermuyden recognised that our son was an able child. With their continued support, we are positive that he will achieve his dreams. Our son also thoroughly enjoys the ‘Brilliant Club’ which allows him a taste of university too. The support and information for us parents of gifted children, is also very helpful and informative.’
- Parent of a Year 9 pupil
‘It is great to see the school take such an interest in high achieving pupils & I know you have had many meetings with my child within his Bursary group & individually.’
- Parent of a Year 10 pupil
‘As a high ability student, I have been given many opportunities, such as the ‘Brilliant Club’, which has helped me to do well and feel supported even further.’
- Year 9 pupil
‘I have been given lots of great opportunities in and out of the classroom as a high achiever at this school. I am a much more confident public speaker and as a musician, I have been given lots of chances to perform in public. Thanks to the school’s extra curricular programme, I have been given lots of opportunities to try new experiences and learn new skills. All teachers are supportive and willing to help me as I prepare for my GCSE’s and I would definitely recommend this school to any pupils, but especially those who are high achievers.’

Put simply, we believe that by providing high quality learning opportunities in the classroom every day, our highest achieving pupils will thrive at this school. This can be seen in the impressive 2017 GCSE results and through pupil and parental feedback.
We also believe that through offering high quality enrichment and extra curricular activities, we are able to offer ways to excite and motivate pupils beyond the classroom.

READ MOREWearing uniform is obligatory; all pupils must comply with the school's uniform code. Not only does the uniform and smartness of out pupils add to the school's image and prestige in the wider community, but it contributes to a business-like atmosphere conductive to achievement.
READ MOREWe place a strong emphasis on pupils participating in activities beyond their regular timetable. These activities develop pupils' social skills, as well as their particular talents and interests. Involvement in such activities also creates a more rounded individual that future employers and colleges look out for.
