School Description

The school expects high standards of pupils’ work and behaviour. It reminds pupils that every minute counts in meeting these standards. Pupils are rising to this challenge. They know that they attend an inclusive school that has improved rapidly. In the past, academic outcomes have been low. Now, however, the sense of ambition is abundantly clear. Lessons are engaging and focused. Pupils learn well. Pupils enjoy attending this school. They fully understand the new expectations for behaviour and attendance. In response, they behave well and treat others with respect. Pupils move around the school calmly. They feel safe in school because they know that staff will act if they raise concerns. All have a trusted adult to whom they can talk. The action the school has taken to improve attendance is having an early impact. The school goes out of its way to develop pupils’ character and interests. Pupils and students in the sixth form are taught how to lead healthy and fulfilling lives. They are well-prepared for life in modern Britain. The house system instils a sense of motivating competition. All pupils can participate in the wide range of sporting clubs and other activities on offer. Increasingly, they can take on leadership responsibilities.
