History

The school was founded in 1982 by a group of local parents. It is based in a Victorian manor house. Many of the original design features such as the integrated chapel and the folly are still intact, though neither of these are currently in use.

In September 1982, in a leased building, the School was officially opened by its first patron the Right Honourable, the Earl of Shrewsbury. Dr J R Garrood, the first Headmaster, began his first day with 17 pupils and 3 part-time teachers. Since then, the School has grown to over 400 pupils and obtained ownership of its buildings and grounds.

The Independent Schools Joint Council accredited the School in 1985 and the Headmaster was elected to the Society of Headmasters and Headmistresses of Independent Schools (SHIMS) in 1991.

Academic performance

In the academic year that finished in June 2006 the school was ranked top in Staffordshire based on league table results.
