Pupils are proud to be a part of this vibrant school. Leaders have high expectations for all pupils, and pupils live up to these expectations. Staff have developed positive relationships with their pupils and know them well. As a result, most pupils achieve well. Pupils feel safe at school. Bullying is rare, and when it does happen, pupils report it because they know that staff will deal with it. Pupils are well mannered and respectful and they engage well in lessons. They behave well and know that the staff have their best interests at heart. If pupils get distracted in lessons, staff support them to focus again. Pupils and sixth-form students are very prepared for their next stages of education, employment and training. This is because they receive relevant careers education and have opportunities to visit education and training providers. Many are successful in gaining university or college places to study their chosen courses. Pupils enhance their wider development through extracurricular activities. There is a wide range of clubs on offer and there is something for everyone. These include LGBTQ+ club, debate club and eco-club. These are attended well by all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
