At Pioneers we set the highest standards for our pupils in terms of both their academic progress and their conduct.

Apart from home, school is the single most important place in the lives of most children. Their experience of school will play a vital role in their lives and be a key determiner in their future. As such, we understand how important it is to decide on the right school for your child.
