Ofsted report

October 2022:

"The school’s motto, ‘Excellence for All’, reflects the ambition that leaders have for  the whole school community. A very strong culture of high expectations across the  school means that pupils here are encouraged to succeed. Pupils benefit from a rich  curriculum that is taught expertly by very well-trained staff. The ambition for all to  do well includes those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), who follow the same carefully considered curriculum as their peers.

Pupils work hard and achieve well. Very clearly established routines ensure that pupils are engaged in their learning and that their work is of a consistently high  quality. Standards of behaviour are very high. Lessons are not disrupted by poor  behaviour, and cases of bullying are rare. When bullying does happen, pupils are  confident that it will be dealt with. Pupils feel safe in the school.

Pupils enjoy school and appreciate the wide range of additional opportunities that  they have. This includes a range of high-profile visiting guest speakers and a variety  of after-school clubs and sporting activities. Pupils are active in supporting  community projects."
