This is a good school The headteacher and other leaders are united by a vision of nurture and care for pupils at the school.
This approach is underpinned by strong Christian values that promote equality well. The headteacher and senior leaders have led many significant recent changes in teaching. However, the intended impact of their actions is not always linked to pupils' outcomes in a measureable way.
Teaching, learning and assessment are good. Teachers are skilled and passionate about their work. As a result, pupils achieve well and make good progress.
Teachers do not consistently challenge pupils in mathematics. As a result, the most able disadvan...taged and lower-attaining pupils, in particular, do not achieve their full academic potential. Leaders are committed to providing a broad and balanced curriculum.
However, opportunities for pupils to develop a deep understanding in a wide range of subjects are limited. Pupil's spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is strong. Pupils learn about different faiths and cultures and the importance of respect towards those who are different from themselves.

Pupils are proud of their school. They are polite and well mannered. They know how to protect themselves online.
