Information

Hewens College is currently undergoing changes as they gained academy status in August 2011. What used to be called the humanities block has now been refurnished into form rooms. Timing for break and lunch have changed for all year groups. The media block is now an area mainly for 6th formers, also the main reception is situated there. Aside from these changes, the school has decided to change its name to Hewens College. There will be a new uniform (with ties for boys, but not for girls), and a new school badge.
