The Library and Resource Centre (LRC) is a warm and welcoming centre for the school’s provision for independent learning, information literacy and promoting reading for pleasure. We support the curriculum and offer study materials for students and staff as well as a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books for Years 7 – 13 for recreational reading. We currently have over 10,000 books and subscriptions to 7 journals. There are 24 computers available and 2 printers.

All students and staff are members of the LRC and may borrow books and those journals not held as reference stock. The LRC is open throughout the day and may be booked for lessons by staff, whilst the Sixth Form have access during their private study periods. At lunchtime, break and after school students may use the LRC for studying, researching, changing books or just relaxing and reading.
