Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
This is a good school.
Most students start school with average skills but a significant minority have lower than expected levels of reading and writing skills. They make good progress to achieve above average results overall in GCSE examinations. The way the school checks and reviews the quality of teaching is accurate. Senior leaders know the strengths and weaknesses of teachers well. Professional development opportunities for staff are good and have improved teaching. Teaching is good and students respond well to the carefully planned lessons provided by the great majority of teachers. Behaviour is good. Students are polite, courteous and enjoy coming to school a great deal. Their attitudes to learning are positive and they feel safe at school. Attendance has improved considerably over the last three years and is now average. Students are looked after very well. Those who find learning difficult and those who are deaf are given support tailored to their needs. Additional government funding is used well to support students who need extra help. These students make good progress. The new sixth form is good and improving. Sixth form students make good progress from their starting points. AS-level results have improved significantly since the sixth form was established. School leadership is good. The headteacher is leading improvements to every part of school life with a strong vision and resolute determination. The governing body provides effective challenge.
It is not yet an outstanding school because:
There is not enough outstanding teaching. Work is not always challenging enough especially for the most able students. Achievement in modern languages and humanities is not high enough. Marking and feedback do not always provide students with clear enough guidance about how to improve their work. Where marking is good, students do not always act on the advice given.
The full inspection report is available from this school's page on the Ofsted website.
