Ofsted report
“The school’s specialism of mathematics and computing supports students’ learning and contributes well to their confidence and skills.The sixth form is good and most students make good progress from their starting points. Leaders in the sixth form are aware of what still needs to be done to enhance further the provision and students’ achievement. There is a wide range of programmes on offer to students at all levels enabling them to support their learning outside normal school hours. These include sports, revision and international links. All of these contribute well to students’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.”
