Ofsted
“Students are proud of their school and behave impeccably towards one another in lessons and around the school. Students feel safe and well cared for. Students’ attendance is well above average. Many out-of-school activities, visits and visitors extend the range of opportunities available for students and this supports their personal development. The sixth form is good. The schools’ partnership with other local schools allows sixth form students to follow a wide range of subjects and courses and, as a result, they achieve well.”
