Ofsted
The school was inspected by Ofsted in November 2001, when the quality of teaching received an overall "good" for both Years 7-9 and 10-11.[1]
Since then, a number of renovations have taken place, including increasing the facilities, earning the school its Sports College status. Recent site improvements include a Gymnastics Complex (opened in 2006) and a dedicated Humanities (History, Religious Education and Geography) block.
In 2007 the school was inspected by Ofsted again and received another "good" ranking overall.[2] In 2012, the school received a "satisfactory" ranking, generally needing improvement in teaching and behavior.[3]
Link School
