“Students make good progress in response to good teaching that engages their interest and stimulates their thinking. Their achievement in the studio’s specialist subjects is strong. Students who have previously been at risk of exclusion or have had a disrupted education are effectively supported; consequently, their attendance has improved and they show good engagement in their work.”
