Ofsted report
“The much improved teaching is ensuring a more regular pattern of good progress for the most able students. Increasingly, activities incorporate higher order challenges which encourage students to think critically and unravel problems or dilemmas. Consequently, their achievement is rising quickly and this is reflected in the increased proportions of students who are on target to attain A* or A grades.”
