It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I write to you as the newly appointed Headteacher of Park High school.  I am honoured to be able to continue forging relationships with such a strong community and I am excited to continue building on these foundations together.

Park High is a school of character and opportunity. As an inclusive school, we are immensely proud that our students genuinely feel part of our community; this sense of belonging enables them to thrive. As a result, they enjoy coming to school, achieve academic success and grow into confident, compassionate young people, well prepared to contribute to society as responsible citizens.

Our students are at the heart of everything we do. Each individual is supported to develop their strengths, discover their passions and fulfil their potential. Together with parents, carers and the wider community, we take great pride in the journey our young people make during their time at our school.

We offer a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities that enrich students’ experiences beyond the classroom and support the taught curriculum. We encourage students to take pride in all that they do, prepare well, be proactive in lessons and persevere when challenges arise.

Our virtues of Compassion, Teamwork, Resilience, Curiosity and Integrity underpin everything we do. We are proud of our achievements, including the ACE School of Character Award, the Equalities Award, Artsmark Gold and the Quality in Careers Standard.

At Park High, our dedicated teachers work in close partnership with families to ensure every student feels known, supported and inspired to succeed. Together, we create an environment where young people are confident and positive about their futures.

On behalf of the Park High community, I look forward to welcoming you and your children.

Mr Neil Darby
Headteacher
