Every student in our school is held to high standards, and we believe that everyone is capable of extraordinary academic accomplishment.
As a GLF Schools Academy, we offer extraordinary, demanding, and individualised educational experiences to make sure that each of us has the chance to grow, learn, and flourish into outstanding leaders and members of society.
Meridian High School is a cutting-edge, energetic academy.
We also think that important teaching tools include kindness, integrity, good manners, hard effort, wonderful behaviour, and self-confidence.
Our committed staff members are steadfast in their resolve to provide students with a variety of tailored options inside and outside the classroom, intended to ensure that their accomplishments meet our high expectations.
Our goal is to make sure the students go on to highly qualified apprenticeships, more education, universities (including those from the Russell Group), and prosperous jobs.
We encourage students to grow in courage, confidence, and risk-taking so that they can succeed academically. We also support them as they try out new things.
Students are expected to be courageous, to push themselves, and to have lofty goals.
To realise our conviction that education is characterised by striving for truth, integrity, and achievement, parents, carers, and staff must collaborate and speak with a single voice.
