This outward-looking school sees itself as part of a wider community and encourages partnerships with parents and carers.

Ofsted report
“All leaders and managers, including governors, have a good understanding of the academy’s strengths and areas for improvement. They are using this continuously and effectively to improve teaching and achievement. Almost all groups of students, including disabled students and those who have special educational needs, make good progress in all year groups and across most subjects. The main reason why students make good progress is because they benefit from teaching which is usually good and sometimes outstanding.”
