Ofsted
“The new headteacher has quickly evaluated the strengths and weaknesses of the school and this has informed clear, coherent development planning focused on rapid improvement… The support of the new academy trust is having a positive impact on the school’s provision. Pupils conduct themselves well around the school and develop positive and constructive attitudes to their own learning.”
