Good Inspected 27 February 2024
Strengths
- “Pupils are extremely well prepared to be global citizens.”
- “They actively contribute within their local community, nationally and towards the wider world.”
- “Pupils develop a strong moral code, supported by the exceptional personal development opportunities on offer.”
To improve
- “However, within the wider curriculum, pupils do not write purposefully, which limits their ability to practise and apply their knowledge in each subject.”
- “However, in some subjects, the way the curriculum is taught does not support some disadvantaged pupils to fully extend their knowledge and skills.”
