They are excellent ambassadors for the college. Students feel completely safe within the college. The governing body, headteacher and senior team share a strong desire to raise students’ achievement through improved teaching. The governing body is experienced and skilled and provides strong challenge and support on behalf of parents and the college community.” (September 2017)

"The school is expertly led and managed. High expectations are the norm, for pupils’ academic achievements and personal development and for maintaining high levels of attendance. This is recognised by parents, who greatly appreciate the school’s endeavour. The governing body contributes strongly to the school’s work, checking carefully that pupils continue to be well served."
