It is a community school administered by North Yorkshire County Council, and offers GCSEs and Cambridge Nationals as programmes of study for pupils.

The school is part of the Red Kite Alliance[1][2] – a partnership of schools and universities in Yorkshire focused on providing school-to-school support and training new teachers.[3][4]

History

In July 2017, a group of children from the school were runners-up in the Project Reinvent Challenge, sponsored by Drax Power and won a share of the £10 000 prize for their design for a new climbing wall.[5]

In December 2017, the school received media attention after part-time art teacher Bridget Adams[6] won The Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts Award for her artwork Organised Kindness.[7]
