“Pupils are proud to attend this school. Staff have high expectations for pupils. Pupils get off to a flying start at the lower school … In the popular sixth form, students study a wide range of academic and vocational courses … Leaders have designed an ambitious curriculum that prepares pupils for life beyond school. In most subjects, curriculum sequencing enables pupils to build on prior learning. However, the curriculum in some subjects, including mathematics, does not prepare students well for further study in the sixth form. Leaders are aware of this and are taking steps to support teachers to eradicate this.”
