Our Vision

The Bishops' Blue Coat Church of England High School is an exciting place to be.

We know, nurture, and inspire our community to be the best version of themselves through a better understanding of the Christian faith, our core values, and a rich set of opportunities. Students achieve academically whilst growing personally and spiritually.

Through their engagement in society and beyond, our students make a positive difference through wise action, resilience, and a sense of responsibility.

Our community is enabled to live life guided by Jesus, to flourish and have “life in all its fullness” (John 10:10)

Our Mission

  • We are a Christian, non-selective and inclusive 11-18 academy
  • We are small enough to know everybody, whilst being able to offer a broad curriculum and a range of opportunities that develop talents and abilities to the full
  • We aim to maintain long-term financial and environmental sustainability and be a positive force in the community
  • We support students to achieve exam results of which they and their families are proud and in turn prepare students for their chosen next steps
  • We strive for excellence
