Value everyone
We believe that valuing everyone,
caring for each other and
striving constantly to achieve
excellence define the Tapton
School community. We value the
achievements and contributions
of all our students. In preparing
this prospectus, we asked our
students what they think defines
our school and published the
results in this prospectus for you to
read, combined with the external
verification of comments from our
most recent Ofsted inspection. It
is interesting to see Ofsted’s views
alongside those of our students and
we hope you find them useful.
Our school is a caring and
ordered community with
an atmosphere of calm and
purposeful learning. Students
are treated as individuals;
we recognise and celebrate
different abilities, aptitudes
and interests and believe that
everyone can develop through
dedication and hard work. We
work hard to ensure every
young person is happy, safe
and successful – a credit to
themselves, their family and
Tapton School.
We are
and we. . .
Tapton
The teaching is a huge
part of being outstanding,
but the support system
is there for every person
and the support from
the Sixth Form team
was really important for
me. Tapton has a strong
family feel.

Extensive
sporting, musical
and performing
opportunities, and
a wealth of extra-
curricular activities,
make strong
contributions to
students’ spiritual,
moral, social and
cultural development.

Care for
each other
Sixth form students are
especially active in supporting
younger students.
You are offered a lot
of support, you get
taught how to be more
independent but there
is always a teacher
there to help.
