Open Evening for September 2026 intake

Our Open Evening for Year 7 intake 2026 will be held on Thursday 10 July 2025, between 6pm and 8.30pm. We are looking forward to showing you all that Ripley has to offer and meeting prospective parents and pupils.

Our Acting Headteacher, Mrs Best, will give Keynote talks in the Chapel at 6.00 pm and 7.30 pm, and in the Phythian Hall at 6.45 pm. We will have hundreds of pupil and student helpers which really help to make the evening, as visitors will be given personal tours around departments.
The video below was produced for a Virtual Open Evening in 2020 but as they say, there is no substitute for the real thing, so come along and enjoy our lovely grounds and school – not to mention the farm!
Apologies but there will be no parking on site during the evening.
