Date of report

Verdict *
Good
“Pupils are proud to be at this school. They are confident, courteous and their behaviour is exemplary. They thrive academically. … Pupils are confident to be themselves and develop excellent relationships. Pupils know that staff care about them. There is a culture of kindness and acceptance. The school emphasises celebrating pupils’ own cultures and this helps pupils to feel welcomed. As a sixth-form student commented, ‘Whoever you are, wherever you come from and whatever you believe, you are given a warm welcome here.’”
