On Tuesday 12th December, it was our pleasure to welcome Tim Peake to officially ‘open’ our college. He stayed with us for four hours and insisted on meeting all students to hear about their work, progress and aspirations.

As the days shorten and many of us see the sun far less frequently than we would like, it is always great to have something to look forward to- apart from Christmas, which people seem to view in many different ways these days.

We held the first of our two open evenings on 9th October for students wishing to gain a place in our sixth form in September 2018. It was wonderful to see so many eager and interested young adults expressing their passion for a STEM education with their searching and relevant questions.
