The current headteacher is Mr Ivan Catlow, whom took over in April 2015.[2] Mr Catlow took over from associate headteacher, Mr Paul Trickett, who was appointed in September 2014.[3] Mr Trickett was previously the headteacher of Rhyddings, Oswaldtwistle. Recently, new windows were fitted to replace existing timber frames, providing staff and pupils with a warmer environment in which to learn.

In February 2016, the school was judged “good” by Ofsted.[4] The report in October 2013 said the school “required improvement”. In March 2017, the school gates were painted gold, in honour of former pupil Stephanie Slater MBE.[5]
