Ofsted report
“Members of the governing body are experienced and highly skilled… Their primary concern was to achieve academy status while continuing to secure the support of staff, parents and the wider community. Their determination to succeed, together with their collegiate and open leadership style, ensured that the transition was seamless. They continue to appropriately challenge school leaders about the ethos and quality of education provided by the school. They are very aspirational and, as a result, there is a continuing programme of improvement.”
