Headteacher's Message

Welcome to our website which is designed to provide you with an insight into life at the school and essential information about our events and activities.

At Ounsdale we have high expectations and set high standards in terms of achievement, attitude and commitment. We are proud of the successes that our students have achieved in public examinations, in the arts, in sport and in the community and work hard to ensure continuous improvement.

We aim to provide our students with essential skills for learning as well as knowledge and understanding and creativity in particular is extremely important to us. We believe that by encouraging our students to be creative and skilled learners they are developing skills that will be invaluable to them – today and in the future.

The school is at a particularly exciting stage of development. We have set ourselves challenging targets for this year and produced an ambitious School Improvement Plan to ensure these are achieved. For our students this will mean even greater opportunities for enjoyment and success.

Our website is updated regularly and whether you are a student accessing the VLE or viewing the latest photos, an existing parent seeking information about events and activities or a prospective parent seeking to find information to help choose a secondary school for your child, then we hope that you find what you are looking for. We welcome feedback and are happy to deal with any personal queries by email or telephone.
