“Strong relationships between staff and pupils help to keep pupils safe, promote personal development and raise their achievement. The promotion of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is a successful feature of the school. Pupils enter the school with below-average levels of achievement and by the end of Year 11, pupils’ outcomes are above national averages. Teachers’ secure subject knowledge contributes to high levels of engagement by pupils.”
