The school is an eclectic mix of the old and the new, with the original buildings constructed in the 1850s when the school was the original 'Gillingham Grammar School'.

Everything we do is about ensuring their experiences at school help them develop into the best they can be in a caring, supportive environment with a strong pastoral structure at the centre of the school. We have high expectations and high aspirations for every one of our students and our vision is Learn. Believe. Achieve.
