Strengths
- “The school has high expectations of what pupils can achieve.”
- “Pupils gain qualifications that prepare them well for their next stages beyond school.”
- “Sixth form students move on to destinations which meet their interests and aspirations.”
To improve
- “However, teaching is not consistently adapted well enough for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “This prevents some pupils from achieving as well as they could.”
- “In many cases, they have removed or reduced these barriers but some pupils, particularly those with SEND or who are otherwise disadvantaged, continue to be absent from school too often.”
