Strengths

- “The behaviour of most pupils is positive because the school’s recent improvements are beginning to have an impact.”
- “Staff apply the new behaviour management strategies consistently well.”
To improve
- “However, this ambition has not been realised, particularly in key stages 3 and 4.”
- “The achievement of pupils has not improved quickly enough.”
- “This is because the school has failed to complete vital elements of curriculum review quickly enough in some subjects.”
