Thank you for taking the time to visit our developing website and find out more about Sandy Upper School.

Sandy Upper School is a vibrant and exciting School. We strive for excellence in everything we do and for all individuals in the School community.

The School is committed to improving, which is evident in the developments made to the facilities in the last two years and in the highly significant improvement to results both at GCSE and A Level.

In 2007 43% of the students achieved the gold standard of 5A*-C; in 2008 this figure rose to 63%. In 2009 we have achieved 70%. The percentage of students achieving 5A*-C with English and Mathematics rose this year from 33% to 46%, a rise of 13%.

My staff and I are all determined to ensure that it rises further and have a range of strategies to ensure that this happens.

Our facilities are impressive and support learning, both through the formal curriculum and curriculum enhancing activities. We are able to offer an exciting range of courses to meet the needs of the students. The courses we offer have increased and diversified during the last two academic years. The formal curriculum is enhanced and supported by the impressive range of extra curricular activities both at Sandy and further afield.

If you require further information, please contact us by telephone, email or arrange a visit; you will be made most welcome.

With all good wishes

CAREERS FAIR 2010

In the current economic climate, many of the companies we have approached are unable to support a fair at this time and so we have reluctantly decided to postpone this event until a later date.
