"One Community, Endless Achievements"

“Fairfax is an active learning community for the 21st Century. We maximise the potential of every student through nurture and challenge to develop the whole child"

Fairfax is a friendly learning community which promotes and celebrates high standards and achievements for all its learners – both academic and personal. With the changing world in the 21st century, academic qualifications just aren't enough, and the development of workplace and life skills is just as important.

This combination is what Fairfax does so well, and OfSTED agrees, "a good and inclusive school with an outstanding business and enterprise ethos which permeates the whole school". They said standards are rapidly improving and we on the right track to further improve learning for all our learners.
