Ofsted report
“Attainment has continued to rise and is now in line with national averages. Progress in English and mathematics is good, with all groups making similar progress. Year 7 catch-up and pupil premium students are now doing as well as their peers. Students attending off-site provision make good progress as a result of their highly personalised courses. The curriculum is broad and balanced, and students’ literacy and information and communication technology skills are promoted well across the curriculum.”
