The school is one of the most oversubscribed in Ealing, with more than 1,500 applications annually for its 300 Year 7 places, prioritizing siblings and local proximity.

It is also well-regarded for its modern language programs, maintaining a legacy as a former language college. Japanese, for instance, remains a particularly strong language focus.

The diverse student body consists of learners from a multitude of ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds. With over 1,800 students enrolled, the school boasts an inclusive and supportive atmosphere. The school aims for continuous learning success within its motto, 'Learning to Succeed.'
