What do our students say about us?
100% employment as NQTs*
We are delighted to announce that ALL of our 2017/18 cohort of ITT** students have secured employment as NQTs within our cluster of schools. With our support and guidance, they have become creative, confident, engaging teachers and we have enjoyed training each and every one. Our pupils are very lucky to have them.

Mr P came to visit!
Mr P joined our students and staff this week at Alton Cluster's INSET day. He inspired the whole room with his energy and passion, sharing his ideas on how to use technology to enhance learning across the curriculum. It was brilliant!
