School Description

Pupils are openly proud of their school. They are forthright when explaining why they think it is a great place to be. Their disappointment at the delayed completion of new ‘awesome’ sports facilities (on both sites of the school) is intense. The palpable excitement generated by new dates for the project’s completion is powerful testament to what this impressive and improving school means to them. Pupils on each site of the school are equally positive about Broomhill. Despite the physical divide, this is very much one community with one vision. Ambitions are high. Students in the sixth form are looking to the future and motivated to be the best they can be. Expectations of what they can achieve continue to rise. Staff want the best outcomes for all, no matter what the barriers for individual pupils are. The school’s pastoral care is strong. Pupils behave well because expectations are clear. Pupils contribute positively when defining and promoting the school’s values. This is impressive when the context of the school is considered. They feel safe and ‘understood’ by staff. Importantly, pupils think that the school is getting better all the time. Inspectors agree.
