School remains Good Inspected 28 June 2023
Strengths
- “Leaders have established a culture of high expectations.”
- “They are ambitious for pupils to achieve well through, for example, the high proportion of pupils who study all three science subjects at GCSE.”
- “In addition, students in the sixth form receive lots of effective guidance in preparation for life after school.”
To improve
- “Leaders are currently developing the rigour of some subject curriculums, such as that for design and technology.”
- “They are also making changes to modern foreign languages in Years 7 to 9.”
- “However, in some subjects, teachers’ checking of pupils’ understanding is not as effective as it could be.”
