The school was inspected by an OFSTED team on 1st and 2nd December. The team delivered their provisional judgments to the senior leadership team and Governors. These will now be moderated by OFSTED, and the report may be ready for publication before the end of term, and at that point I am able to communicate the judgment to the wider school community.

The inspectors saw many strengths in the school – including the good progress most of our students make, the excellent support we provide and the range of activities outside the classroom which build the resilience of our students. They have also identified points for improvement, which will help us make our school even better. What pleased me most is how much praise they heaped on our students – they found them polite, articulate and keen to learn – and that makes me very proud.
