“Teaching is improving in many subjects and it is good in English, geography, history, drama and information technology. Many pupils are making stronger progress than they have in the past, including in the sixth form. Opportunities for pupils to develop spiritual, moral, social and cultural awareness are improving. Safeguarding is a strength of the school and pupils feel safe.”
