School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. Based on the evidence gathered during this short inspection, I am of the opinion that the school has demonstrated strong practice and marked improvement in specific areas. This may indicate that the school has improved significantly overall. Therefore, I am recommending that the school’s next inspection be a section 5 inspection. Since the previous inspection, you have worked with determination and skill to ensure that pupils achieve and develop the personal knowledge and skills they need to prepare them very well for their futures, in a safe and caring environment. You model the school’s values in your interactions with staff and pupils. Staff are motivated by this. They are committed to doing their best for their pupils. As a result, pupils love coming to school. You have ensured that, through your well-considered personal, social, health and economic (PHSE) education programme, pupils have a wide range of opportunities to develop their skills. As a result, they become self-confident learners and selfassured members of the community. They learn to reflect on their learning and how they can keep improving it. Pupils are curious to learn and this contributes effectively to the progress they make. They are caring and respectful of others who come from different backgrounds from their own.
