Ofsted report

“You provide strong and effective leadership and are well supported by the senior team. You clearly understand the extent of what needs to be done to improve the school and the limited time available to embed change. The new behaviour and rewards policy is having a positive impact on learning. As a result of teachers’ higher expectations of behaviour, students are beginning to show better attitudes to learning which were evidenced during visits to classrooms.”
