• Students consistently meet the school’s high expectations of their conduct, and the school’s strong pastoral support helps students if they do struggle to meet these expectations.
• Students, including disadvantaged students, achieve extremely well across the breadth of the subjects that they study. This is reflected in consistently high outcomes in exams.
• Staff are well supported by leaders at all levels. The school provides them with high quality training. This includes detailed information on how to support students with SEND in lessons.
