Ofsted
The latest visit from Ofsted was in the form of a short Inspection on the 14th November 2017 to check whether KSHS was still delivering a good standard of education and that safeguarding in the school remains effective.
The Inspection Team found the school to be a ‘Good’ school. It commented on the ‘strong sense of purpose and togetherness’ and the fact that Governors and Staff all feel ‘empowered’ and ‘accountable for student achievement’. The Inspection Team went out of their way to comment on the collegiate atmosphere amongst Staff in the school and the strong and productive relationships they had with students. The Inspection Team also commended the students as articulate, engaged and ambitious learners.
