Ofsted 2011

"The curriculum is a strength of the school, particularly for those students who choose to take more vocational pathways in partnership with local training providers and colleges.

The overwhelming majority of these students continue in education, employment or training when they leave school.

The Humanities Specialism has a significant impact on improving the quality of teaching and learning across the school through the 'transforming learning' group.

Inspectors saw some innovative examples of teaching through different strategies in larger groups.

Students report that they enjoy this type of learning in the environment designed to imitate that of the new school."
