Ofsted report
“The achievement of students is outstanding. The progress students make from their starting points in different subject areas, including English, mathematics, science, languages, humanities, the arts, and physical education is outstanding. This is the case for all groups of students, including those of different abilities and both boys and girls. The quality of teaching is often outstanding. Teachers have an excellent understanding of their students’ needs and meet those needs very closely. Teachers’ questioning of students is often very skilful. Teachers use the information from the checks they make on students’ understanding very well. This informs planning and teachers make adjustments where necessary to move students’ learning on very rapidly.”
