About Mullion

Life is good at Mullion. The students, staff, governors and parents are proud of their school, which serves the community on the Lizard peninsula. We have first class teachers and we are sent well motivated pupils with positive supportive parents. This is a recipe for success and the reason why we consistently achieve a very high position in the league tables for non-selective Cornish schools. Our results both at the end of Key Stage 3 (Year 9) and at GCSE are significantly above the national average. In 2007 we gained Investor in People status, The Silver Artsmark Award. In 2005 we became a specialist school in the Performing Arts of Dance, Drama and Music. More recently we have been given Healthy School and Dyslexia Friendly school status.
