  • Every pupil has the opportunity to flourish.
  • Pupils speak with pride about the inclusive nature of the school.
  • A strong, caring culture permeates all aspects of school life.
  • Pupils are kind and supportive of one another.
  • The curriculum pupils follow extends well beyond the academic.

Exam Performance in 2022

Given the uneven impact of the pandemic on school and college performance data, the government has said you should not make direct comparisons between the performance data for one school or college and another, or to data from previous years.

Progress 8 Score:  -0.61

How many students achieved a grade 5 or above in English and Maths: 22%

How many students achieved a grade 4 or above in English and Maths: 59.3%

Average Attainment 8 Score per student: 4.0

English Baccalaureate (EBacc) average point score: 3.42

Percentage of students that enter the EBacc: 12%

Percentage of students staying in education or going into employment after KS4: 100%

This data may change as remarks and queries will not be known until later this term.

There were no students in Year 13 this summer and therefore no results to report.

Parent View

Ofsted (the Office for Standards in Education) now have an online questionnaire called ‘Parent View’, which gives you the chance to tell them and us what you think about our school. Parent View asks for your opinion on twelve aspects of our school.

Parent View - Give Ofsted your view on your child's school

We have provided a direct link to Parent View questionnaire from our web site or you can access it at http://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk

We encourage all parents / carers to take a few minutes to complete this valuable questionnaire.

You will need an email address and password for the simple log-in process.

This survey is not designed to receive complaints about schools.  If you do have any concerns please share them with us personally so that we can try to resolve them for you quickly.

If you do not have access to a computer and would like to complete the survey, please contact the school office and we will arrange a suitable time to access a school computer.
