What the school inspection says

“This is a large and vibrant school that sits at the heart of its local community. Leaders prioritise pupils’ academic achievement and pupils achieve well. Leaders show a strong commitment to pupils beyond just academic success. There is a wealth of opportunities in which pupils can take part outside the classroom. One pupil said that the school, ‘helps us to find our talents and interests’. The range of sports and performing arts clubs is impressive … Pupils are happy, courteous and articulate … Many parents praised the school for its ‘fantastic’ response to Covid-19 restrictions.”
