Strengths
- “Pupils feel a strong sense of belonging at the school which sits at the heart of the community.”
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are highly positive.”
- “Pupils feel valued, nurtured and supported.”
To improve
- “In some subjects, however, pupils and some sixth-form students are not supported sufficiently well to extend their learning and write with clarity to demonstrate their understanding.”
- “As a result, sixth-form outcomes are below what is typical nationally.”
- “However, teachers do not consistently draw on what they know about pupils' understanding when adapting lessons.”
