Pupils do not fare well at this school. They are ill-prepared for the next stage of their life. A poorly designed curriculum and weaknesses in how it is delivered hampers pupils’ chances of attaining well in GCSE examinations. Some teachers’ expectations of what pupils can achieve academically are not high enough. Leaders’ actions to improve pupils’ achievement have been unsuccessful. Pupils are confident that behaviour is getting better, although a minority of pupils still choose not to behave as they should in class. Corridors around the school are generally calm. Even so, some younger pupils do not like it when older pupils push in front of them in the lunch queue. Pupils say that they feel safe at school. They are confident that staff will look after them. Pupils told us that if they report bullying, staff will deal with it. They say that bullying is rare, and they appreciate the work of their peers as ‘bully busters’. That said, a small number of pupils are hesitant to report bullying to a member of staff. Some pupils are involved in extra-curricular activities. A small number of pupils take part in sporting activities, music lessons and the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award scheme. Pupils are keen to support good causes, such as the local food bank.

2015 GCSE RESULTSImportant information for parents
Due to number of reforms to GSCE reporting introduced by the government in 2014, such as the exclusion of iGCSE examination results, the official school performance data may not accurately report a school’s full results. For more information, please see About and refer to the section, ‘Why does a school show 0% on its GSCE data dial? In many affected cases, the Average Point Score will also display LOW SCORE as points for iGCSEs and resits are not included.
Schools can upload their full GCSE results by registering for a School Noticeboard. All school results data will be verified.
