School Description

Bradford Studio School opened in September 2012 and focused initially on vocational education in the areas of international food and travel. However, from the beginning of this academic year, its offer has widened to include courses linked to health and social care. Studio schools are much smaller than the average-sized secondary school. The number on roll at this school, 56 at the time of the inspection, is much lower than the 300 students expected for a studio school. A significant proportion of students joins Years 10 and 12 after the beginning of the school year. As part of its specialist studio school provision, work experience placements are arranged for all students, one day each week at Key Stage 4 and 2 days per week for post-16 students. The majority of students are of Pakistani heritage, while White British students form a significant minority. The proportion of students for whom the school receives pupil premium funding, additional government funding to support the achievement of disadvantaged students including those in public care, is above average. The proportion of disabled students or those with special educational needs supported by school action or school action plus is above average. No student has a statement of special educational needs. The school is part of the Bradford College Education Trust (BCET), a partnership with Bradford College and two academy schools. The Trust has overarching strategic responsibility for the school’s governance and provides support for school improvement. It also takes responsibility for managing areas including premises, human resources and finance. The school uses Bradford College’s specialist facilities for teaching physical education and science, as none are available on its own site. The school does not use alternative provision This year is the first time the school has a set of public examination results which, when validated, can be compared with the government’s floor standards, the minimum expectations of students’ attainment and progress at the end of Year 11.
