We can only accommodate disabled visitors’ parking on our site for Open Mornings. If you are coming by car, do not park lower down the Headlands than Glebe Avenue and walk to school. This will take approximately 5 minutes.

Open Evening: Thursday 8 October 2026: 5.30pm – 8.00pm
Our Open Evening gives you an opportunity to meet students and staff and explore all areas of the school site. You are welcome to attend, even if you have visited on one of our Open Mornings.

No booking is required.  Families are welcome to arrive throughout the Open Evening and tour the site; there will be the two presentations from the Headteacher and students at 5:45pm and 6:30pm.  

We anticipate over 1000 visitors. To manage this, parking on the Headlands will be unavailable in the vicinity of the school: cones will be in place. Parking for Open Evening is located at the Cornmarket car park on London Road (Postcode NN15 7QA). A bus will then transport you to and from school. Both parking and buses are free. Buses will run every 20 minutes from 5.10pm.
