 Southfield College is smaller than most secondary schools.  The college is due to close at the end of this academic year. Stainburn School is also closing. A new academy will be opened to serve the Workington community.  Workington sixth form operates from the Southfield site and serves students from Southfield and Stainburn schools and students from other local schools.  The majority of students are White British. There are very few students from minority ethnic groups, and very few speak English as an additional language.  The proportion of disabled students or who have special educational needs is well-above average.  The proportion of disadvantaged students supported by the pupil premium is well-above average. The pupil premium is additional funding provided to the school to support students entitled to free school meals or who are in the care of the local authority.  A small number of students are educated off-site currently at one alternative provider, the West Cumbria Achievement Zone.  The school meets the current government floor standards which are the minimum expectations for students’ attainment and progress.  Since the last inspection, there have been significant changes to leadership, governance and teaching staff. An interim headteacher and executive headteacher were appointed after the college was placed in special measures. An interim executive board (IEB) has taken over governance.  Leaders are managing the closure of the two schools and the opening of the new academy through close partnership working and the sharing of staff across both schools.  The school works in partnership with William Howard School and with National Leaders of Education (NLEs) and Local Leaders of Education (LLEs) through the Cumbria Association of System Leaders.
