Cypress Schools are co-educational and take pupils from a variety of backgrounds. The school is committed to ensuring that each pupil is recognised as a valued member of the community by their peer group, staff and self.

We firmly believe that cultural diversity enriches our community and pupils are encouraged to learn from each other, to broaden their experience, but yet value their own culture and background.

We are opposed to any form of discrimination and are committed to developing caring, responsible and independent citizens who have a love of learning and who value themselves and others.

Finally we welcome applications from pupils regardless of race, colour, creed or gender and will try to ensure that they have equal access to all areas of the Curriculum.
