The school is the main state secondary school in the area, and includes Edgbarrow Sixth Form College. It previously held the title of a Business and Enterprise College as a specialist school. The school has approximately 1,230 pupils, most of whom come from Crowthorne schools, such as Wildmoor Heath School and Oaklands School. The school teaches 11- to 18-year-olds, and has some of the best results in Bracknell Forest at GCSE of any non-selective state schools.[2] School siteThe school is on the boundary of Wildmoor Heath Nature Reserve and covers approximately 5,000 m² (200.5 acres). The school has two large grass playing fields and one astro-turf pitch. The sports centre is used by the school for PE lessons taking advantage of their sports hall and dance studio. The School has seven main buildings:
The administration block was built in 2003, whilst the main body of the school was constructed throughout the previous forty years. Prior to the construction of the new admin block, reception was located in a small room near the main hall, which is now a computer room known as IT 1. Sixth Form CentreOver 200 students study at the school sixth form. The college has trialled a fingerprint recognition system, which teachers have proclaimed to be moderately successful.[3] As well as A-level subjects, students can also follow a GNVQ course, which is an "equivalent" to four GCSEs.[4] The sixth form college is within the top 10% of A-level providers in Great Britain. A new sixth form and business studies building was opened in September 2010 in order to allow for the ever-increasing student population. The new sixth form building features state-of-the-art facilities to improve learning, including: A quiet study area, a student-run tuck shop, surrounding classrooms, and a large communal atrium where students can socialise. The atrium is also used for assemblies and school events. Edgbarrow SwingbandThe Swingband is a group of swingers, led by Tony Evans, containing brass, wood, percussion, keyboards, and guitars. They have played with each other at many local events and schools including the opening of Jennett's Park School, Bracknell in autumn 2011. They have regular appearances at the school concerts, magic shows and other events as well as hosting their own concerts.
