Welcome
My passion has always been to make a positive difference to the lives of young people by providing them with the very best education we can deliver, within an organisation that cares about the young person as a whole, preparing them for their next stage of life.
At Landau Forte Charitable Trust my team share my passion for giving all young people, life opportunities, through the education experiences that we provide. From the Trustees through to our support staff, my team are committed to driving improvement. Looking for creative solutions to problems and having the ambition to go further and achieve more. To this end every member of staff is highly valued and paramount to ensuring our students receive the very best start to life.
We have high expectations for all our young people within our Trust and we are committed to helping them to enjoy their time with us and develop their full potential. As part of this we aim to develop lifelong learners who will positively contribute to the society of the future.
We strive to ensure our children, staff, parents and carers are proud to be a part of the Landau Forte family, where they help to build and shape an ethos and culture which places young people first.

Happy 77th Birthday to the NHS!
We’re grateful to all NHS workers in our communities – past, present and future – for their commitment and care. The NHS inspires us in our mission to put young people first, with wellbeing always at the heart of what we do.
We didn’t take home the trophy, but being 1 of just 8 UK schools shortlisted for Secondary School of the Year at the #TesAwards2025 was a huge honour.
Thank you to all our students, staff & families for everything that got us there – we couldn’t be more proud!
No question is too small.
No worry is too silly.
Talk to someone — your teachers, your family, your friends.
We’re here to help you through it all.
