Headteacher's Welcome GCSE Courses 2025–2026 Exam Information Alumni Ofsted Reports 2022 Year 7 Transition Welcome to Park Prospectus Letters & Newsletters Welcome to Park Community School Our school provides an expansive park environment. Through a wide variety of lessons and other opportunities to learn, we encourage our young people to discover what they love.
As well as the school site, we have several other facilities to provide a great curriculum and exciting places in which to learn.
We think there are a number of important areas of learning while at school and describe these as attainment, resilience and autonomy; exams and qualifications matter in life along with the ability to cope with adversity, getting up when life knocks us down, as well as becoming independent and able to make good choices.
Over the last decade we have planned and constructed our new buildings. The fantastic facilities support students' learning and enrich their time in school.
