What the school inspection says

Date of report
2022
Verdict *
Good
“Leaders are ambitious for all pupils. … Pupils enjoy attending school. They feel safe and say that bullying is rare. If bullying does happen, pupils trust staff to deal with it promptly. … Pupils appreciate the range of clubs and development opportunities that many take part in. For example, there are music clubs, sporting activities and a ‘Pride’ group. Pupils value the information they receive about their next steps in education or into employment or apprenticeships. Sixth-form students move on to appropriate destinations, with a large proportion going on to university.”
