“The behaviour of students is good. Students, including those in the sixth form, approach their learning with commitment and enthusiasm, bring the right equipment to class and present their work neatly. They understand how their behaviour contributes to learning, and they respect the clear rules for conduct. They collaborate effectively in lessons. Students report that disruption in lessons is rare.”
