Ofsted report
“The excellent leadership of the headteacher, first-rate teaching, students’ excellent attitudes to learning and knowledgeable governance all combine to make Keswick School outstanding. Students make rapid progress. The sixth form is outstanding. A well above average proportion of students achieve the highest A Level grades and successfully find jobs or win places at the university of their choice. Teachers are highly knowledgeable and have tremendous enthusiasm for their subjects. Their high expectations and use of varied and interesting resources ensure students are challenged to achieve their best while really enjoying learning. In a few lessons students’ progress, although still good, is not quite as rapid because teachers’ questioning does not always challenge them to think deeply.”
