Welcome to The John Roan School

At The John Roan School, we pledge to provide a rich, broad and varied education that stretches students both academically and socially, to achieve their full potential.  We are ambitious as well as inclusive, setting high expectations of everyone in the school community, providing a learning environment in which students can flourish and achieve success from year 7 right through to year 13.

We are part of the United Learning group of schools which enables us to provide more for both staff and students than any single school could offer alone. Uniquely, our group includes schools in both the public and the private sectors, creating benefits for all the schools involved. Working together, we make it our mission to bring out 'the best in everyone' – students, staff, parents and the wider community.

We believe that students flourish when they have the opportunity to participate in a broad range of activities and experiences outside of their lessons, and our diverse enrichment programme has character development at its heart, and we are extremely proud to have been awarded the School of Character Kitemark in 2021.

The John Roan School is an inclusive community with a strong commitment to providing the necessary multi-agency support to ensure that all of our students and their families are able to thrive.
