School Description

At the inspection in December 2013, the school was judged to require special measures. The local authority asked Ninestiles Academy to provide school improvement support. The previous headteacher retired at the end of 2013. Other senior and middle leaders left the school shortly afterwards. Ninestiles Academy provided senior staff to support school leadership, including the current Principal, assistant principals and some subject leadership. There is currently a full complement of teaching staff in most subjects, apart from mathematics which has one teaching vacancy, and permanent subject leadership in all departments. The chief executive of Ninestiles Multi-Academy Trust is the executive head at Cockshut Hill. She is a national leader of education. Ninestiles provides teacher professional development support.
