Ofsted report
“Leadership and management have improved and are now good. Determined actions by leaders and governors have ensured that important improvements in teaching and the achievement of students have been secured. Different groups of students in the school are learning well. Students with special educational needs make progress that is as least as good as other pupils in the school. In addition, the gap between the achievement of disadvantaged students and others is closing quickly. This is because teachers have increasingly high expectations of these students. Students behave well and display positive attitudes to learning. Arrangements to keep students safe are good. The range of extra-curricular activities is outstanding.”
