Date of report
2023
Verdict *
Good
“Pupils are overwhelmingly positive about their school. Pupils receive a good standard of education and learn a range of challenging subjects. They enjoy their learning and relish the many opportunities to extend their knowledge about the world. Through the curriculum, pupils develop high aspirations. From Year 7 to Year 13, pupils develop exceptional knowledge and understanding about citizenship … The school’s vision that pupils will learn ‘confidence with humility’ is fully enacted throughout the curriculum. Students in the sixth form learn an exceptional curriculum. They embrace learning and value highly the well-considered programme about careers and higher education. Behaviour and attitudes, personal development and sixth -orm provision were deemed to be outstanding.”
