Olive High’s motto, ‘Consectatione Excellentiae – Striving for Excellence’ is lived out by staff and pupils alike. The impact on pupils is transformational. One pupil summed up the views of many saying, ‘I have achieved things that I never thought were possible.’ The school is an inspirational place for pupils to study. Pupils receive an impressive and ambitious curriculum alongside considerable extra-curricular opportunities, such as archery, self-defence and computer coding. This supports pupils exceptionally well. They develop high levels of self-confidence and the resilience to achieve their dreams and aspirations. Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary. Staff model consistently high expectations. Pupils rise to these expectations. They see the adults around them as inspirational role models to emulate and so they do. Attendance is high because pupils find their learning irresistible. Leaders have used their considerable knowledge of teaching and learning to establish a curriculum that supports pupils exceptionally well. Pupils’ achievement is very high and reflected consistently in published outcomes. As a result of the curriculum and an impressive personal development programme, pupils achieve note-worthy success and are superbly well prepared for their future lives.
