Dear Parent/Carer and Student
I am sharing with you the final version of the Ofsted report following the inspection of the school on 5 and 6 October, 2022.
The outcome of the report is fair but disappointing. I believe we are a good school with elements that need improving and will be improved. As a school we are constantly on the journey for improvement and I wish to reassure parents/carers and students this will happen and has been happening. I wish to reassure you, we do not stand still in raising standards.
The report highlights a challenge for all schools, including our school, the need to further enhance the existing practice we have established in terms of reading, phonics and SEND provision. It is important to emphasise that the message of the report is more about there are elements we need to enhance rather than we have not got the correct provision in place.
Finally, the report also reflects the day to day typicality of the school; a calm, orderly learning environment and a safe place with respect at the forefront of all we do. This is a due to the testimony of all the staff that work tirelessly every day for the young people of the school.

Yours faithfully
Bryan Erwin
Principal
