The leadership team has made the environment more inclusive and safe, with high-quality teaching and learning a priority.

Safeguarding is of paramount importance, with effective training and systems in place, a robust response to issues, and pupils who feel safe in the school.

Inspectors found inconsistencies in approach and some pupils needing to catch up due to legacy of weaker teaching, resulting in some most-able pupils not making the progress they should.

Leadership of sixth form has been strengthened, with better monitoring and tracking, stronger expectations, and increased opportunities for student development.

Exclusions have been dramatically reduced due to a solution-focused approach to behaviour and support for vulnerable pupils, including an inclusion centre.

Ofsted recommends focusing on consistent challenge for most-able pupils and evaluating the effectiveness of actions in the school development plan.
