Ofsted report

“The curriculum is well matched to students’ needs. There is a small and appropriate offer of vocational subjects but the mainstay of the curriculum is traditional and academic. Students receive good quality information, advice and guidance involving their parents. There is a good range of extra-curricular activities on offer.”
