School Description

Perry Beeches the Academy is an average-sized secondary school. Perry Beeches became an academy in May 2012. There have been significant changes to the governing body and the leadership team since the last inspection. This academy is part of the Perry Beeches Academy Trust. In the last academic year, the trust removed all delegated responsibilities from the local governing body. The first meeting of the newly formed local governing body took place on the first day of this inspection. The chair of PBAT was appointed shortly before this inspection. The chair of the local governing body position was vacant at the time of this inspection. The proportion of pupils eligible for support from the pupil premium is above the national average. Inspection report: Perry Beeches the Academy, 21–22 September 2016 Page 10 of 13 The percentage of pupils from minority ethnic groups is above average. A proportion come from Caribbean and Indian backgrounds. Over 50% of the pupils are White British. The proportion of pupils who have an education, health and care plan is below the national average. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities is above average. However, the school’s identification of pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities is unreliable. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. A large number of staff left the school in 2016. The school recruited to the majority of these positions successfully. Most of the staff in the school are subject specialists. The school does not meet requirements on the publication of specified information about its arrangements for pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities on its website. The school does not comply with the Department for Education guidance on what academies should publish about the governance scheme of delegation.
