The school and trust have high expectations of pupils’ achievement. The school includes everyone.
The curriculum considers pupils’ needs and interests. Pupils are able to study for a range of appropriate qualifications. Pupils’ achievement is improving year-on-year.
The curriculum is ambitious for all pupils, including those with SEND. Subject curriculums are well designed. The ‘powerful knowledge’ that the school wants pupils to learn is clearly identified. Subject content is introduced in a logical order so that pupils build their knowledge over time.
Many pupils value the vast range of extra-curricular activities that are available to them. For instance, pupils enjoy attending clubs such as badminton, drama and rock band. Through these clubs, pupils strengthen their sporting skills, team-working abilities and musical talents.
