Orleans Park School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Orleans Park School is a mixed, state-run, secondary school, located in Twickenham, London, England.
Orleans Park teaches students in years 7–11 (ages 11-16). Many students at Orleans Park have come from St. Stephen's School, Archdeacon Cambridge's School, Worple Primary School, Stanley Junior School, Chase Bridge Primary School and St. Mary's School. There are 8 tutor groups in each school year (7-11), and each tutor group's name spells out part of the school's name (O, R, L, E, A, N, S and P). Orleans Park became a Mathematics and Computing College in September 2003 and in September 2008 it became a language college also. It does not have a sixth form.
The uniform consists of a maroon sweatshirt, a white polo shirt and black trousers; both the polo shirt and the sweatshirt are adorned with the school's new logo, an O and a P going through each other (the previous logo featured a swan above the three swords which are symbolic of the county of Middlesex).
