Leaders have established support for mental health and wellbeing, drawing upon the expertise of external agencies as necessary.

Safeguarding is effective in the school.

Leaders have established robust procedures to provide regular and accurate analysis of students’ progress in the sixth form. This has resulted in improvements in the proportion of higher grades being achieved.
