Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to attend Queensbridge.”
- “They value the quality of learning they experience and how well they are supported when making their post-16 choices.”
- “They appreciate the school’s inclusive culture and celebration of diversity.”
To improve
- “However, a small number of pupils do not; their less than positive attitudes mean that some pupils do not feel valued for who they are.”
- “However, the school’s allocation of time to study different subjects means that some subjects are prioritised at the expense of others.”
- “Consequently, pupils’ depth of learning in some subjects is not as strong as in others.”
