School Description

On 7 September 2017, the sponsor of this school, Wakefield City Academies Trust (WCAT), issued a statement to say that it had requested that the Department for Education work with it to place its academies with new sponsors. This is because the WCAT ‘does not have the capacity to facilitate the rapid improvement our academies need and our students deserve’. The governing body of this school is also that of Montagu Primary Academy, another school in the Wakefield City Academies Trust. The school meets requirements on the publication of specified information on its website. The school complies with Department for Education guidance on what academies should publish. In 2016, the school did not meet the government’s floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress by the end of Year 11. Inspection report: Mexborough Academy, 20–21 September 2017 Page 9 of 12 The school is smaller than the average-sized secondary school. The school has no students in its sixth form this year. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities is below average. The proportion of pupils supported by pupil premium funding is well above the national average. The school is receiving support from Doncaster local authority. Most pupils are of White British heritage. There are very few from minority ethnic groups and a very few speak English as an additional language. The school uses an alternative provider, the South West Learning Centre, to meet the needs of some pupils who struggle to be successful in school.
