Ofsted report

“Since the previous inspection, the Principal and senior leaders have concentrated successfully on raising achievement and improving the quality of teaching and students’ behaviour. Their work is bringing about significant improvements across the academy. The recently restructured governing body is much better informed and is providing more rigorous challenge. It is making positive contributions to improving the quality of leadership and teaching.”
