Welcome to Cove School

We are dedicated to providing an exceptional learning experience for all students, whilst also supporting them to become mature, self-confident and well-rounded young people. We recognise that words, pictures and statistics will only give you a hint of the warmth, ambition and commitment of Cove and we invite you to see us in action. We are very confident that a visit to the School will justify your interest as we continue to develop as a centre of educational excellence.

Headteacher: Dr Andrew King

Year 7 students got the opportunity to take part in steel pan workshops, run by Culturemix, this week. They enjoyed trying a new instrument and learning about a different culture. It was fantastic to see all students get involved and enjoy working together as a steel pan orchestra! If your child is interested in taking part in weekly steel pan lessons at school, they should speak to Mr Futcher for further information about signing up.
