Ofsted
“Most teachers create a positive, calm and encouraging atmosphere in their classes and work hard at planning activities, which are supported well by resources that interest and engage the students. High quality display work is particularly effective in promoting a learning environment conducive to work. The behaviour of students around the academy and in lessons is good. Students are polite and courteous to one another, to staff and to visitors. A significant strength of lessons is the good relationships between teachers and students and between different groups of students who support in each other in small-group and pair work”.
