Kirsty Branch's Company Details
It is over 80 years since Drayton Manor opened in 1930 and we continue to build on the successes of the past to put the school in the best possible position for the next 80 years.Perhaps the fact that we have only our fifth Head of Drayton Manor in all that time says something about the school and how it plans systematically for the future.The Good Schools Guide opens its review of Drayton Manor with the sentence "This is about as good as it gets" and it also notes that the school is vastly oversubscribed. This serves only to make us even more determined to do better than before.In their report of 2012, Ofsted remark that: "The successes of the past, combined with this spirit, are what make the school's capacity to improve so strong".The spirit that Ofsted refer to is our "dedication to students' well-being and success" and that staff are constantly supported and encouraged to seek ways to improve further.
