So the plans for the Sixth Form Centre are back on track? Yes. We are working with a superb team, led by CS2 surveyors, and we aim to start work this summer, with the opening scheduled for Easter 2022. With a fl oorspace of nearly 400 square metres, there will be enough room to cater for the study needs of our Sixth Formers and help equip them for the world of work and higher education.


What will the construction project involve? We are building the centre on top of the roof of our 1962 Dining Hall. It will be one storey high and will tick the right boxes when it comes to sustainability, which is something the pupils themselves have been championing. Legend has it that the original Dining Hall took longer to build than the first stretch of the M1 Motorway, and that the lights fused at the 1962 opening ceremony, so we are hoping for a smoother build process this time. If you interview me again in 2045, when we celebrate our 450th anniversary, I shall be able to tell you how this project compared!
