This inspection rating relates to a predecessor school. When a school converts to an academy, is taken over or closes and reopens as a new school a formal link is created between the new school and the old school, by the Department for Education. Where the new school has not yet been inspected, we show the inspection history of the predecessor school, as we believe it still has significance.

Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
This is a good school. The quality of teaching has improved and is continuing to improve. Lessons are well planned with a good range of activities to effectively engage students in their learning.
Achievement has improved with students making better progress to secure higher results in English and mathematics in 2013. Students in the school currently are making good progress. Students are making better progress in most subjects with increasing proportions making better than expected progress.
Behaviour is improving and is now good. Relationships between teachers and students are respectful. Students are appreciative of the hard work of their teachers and the w...ays their teachers support and help them to achieve their best.
The school is a caring community where students are safe. Senior leaders have both an uncompromising commitment to and a clear understanding of the need to accelerate the progress of all students and to address the needs of disadvantaged students and thus raise achievement. Teachers are purposefully united in these shared priorities.
Senior leaders and subject leaders lead and manage teaching well. They provide appropriate support and challenge which is improving the quality and effectiveness of teaching. The sixth form consortium arrangement with two other local schools works well to provide a comprehensive curriculum.
This is an improving school. It is not yet an outstanding school because : A small amount of teaching requires improvement as it does not always meet the needs of all students. Students need to make more rapid progress in some subjects in order to achieve the higher GCSE grades.
The gaps between the performance of disadvantaged students and other students are closing but there is still some way to go in reducing these gaps further. The sixth form requires improvement as students do not all achieve as well as they should in some subjects.
Information about this school
Wolfreton School is a larger than average-sized secondary school which is divided between two sites, one housing students in Key Stage 3, the other for students in the sixth form and Key Stage 4.
The buildings are one and a half miles apart. Sixth form students are part of a well-established consortium with two other schools in the local authority. The proportion of students known to be eligible for the pupil premium, which is additional funding for those students who are known to be eligible for free school meals, children from service families and those children who are looked after by the local authority, is well below the national average.
The proportions of students from minority ethnic groups and for whom English is an additional language are much lower than those typically found. The proportion of disabled students and those with special educational needs supported at school action is below average. The proportion of students supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is well below average.
Although most students come from the locality, almost one third of students are resident in the neighbouring local authority. A total of 44 Year 10 and Year 11 students access vocational courses for one day a week as part of a mixed timetable arrangement with the local Hull College. The school has met the government's current floor standard, which sets out the minimum expectations for students' attainment and progress.
