Parkside Community College is a highly oversubscribed school with a long history of success and an excellent reputation for innovation in education. We are situated across two buildings, with the main site, overlooking Parker's Piece, opening in 1913. We offer 120 places in each year group and believe deeply in the power of 'human scale' education, where every student is very well known and strong relationships help teachers to support their classes to exceptional outcomes.

We are committed to supporting our colleagues to be highly effective teachers: as well as department curriculum time, we develop our teaching as a whole staff every week, informed by Rosenshine's Principles. We have a behaviour policy that is consistent and enables colleagues to teach without disruption.
