School Description

This Roman Catholic school is smaller than the average secondary school. Students join the sixth form from other schools so that it is large for the size of the school. The proportion of students eligible for the pupil premium (additional funding for those known to be eligible for free school meals, looked after students and those from armed service families) is much higher than average. Currently in the school there are no students from service families and four looked after students. A number of Year 7 students are eligible for catch-up funding which is for students who did not attain level 4 in English or mathematics at the end of primary school. The school is ethnically very diverse. Most of the students come from minority ethnic groups. The largest groups are from any other White and African backgrounds. The proportion of students who speak English as an additional language is very high. The proportion of students who join the school at other than normal times is wellabove average. The proportions of disabled students and those with special educational needs who are supported at school action are much higher than average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is broadly average. The largest proportions of these students have behavioural, emotional or social difficulties or moderate learning difficulties. At present, one student attends a course at Enfield College for part of the week. The headteacher is a local leader of education (LLE). She is currently leading on a national programme to close gaps in achievement. The school meets the government’s current floor standard, which sets the minimum expectations for students’ progress and attainment.
