OfSTED Comments
"My colleague and I very much enjoyed our visit to your school for the recent inspection. I would like to thank you all for your courteous welcome, and particularly those we talked to in lessons and in the arranged interviews. You all clearly think you are attending an outstanding school, and we totally agree with you.
Everything about your school is excellent and I will start with what this means for each of you. The standards you achieve by the end of Year 11, and those of you who stay on to the sixth form, are high and your achievement, which means the progress you make over your years at school, is outstanding. In addition, we were impressed by what balanced, mature young people you are. You have a very sensible attitude to work and to your relations with others. You contribute very positively to your school and the wider community. Whether you profess to be Catholic or not, you all recognise the benefits of the ethical and spiritual values of the college, and feel secure and valued within it. Together with the excellent care and teaching you get, this is why you achieve so well. Here are some other key features of the college.
?It is very well led and managed by the headteacher and senior staff. ?The specialist science college status has led to major improvements in facilities and the range and quality of the curriculum. ?You get exceptional guidance how to improve your standards. The only exception to this is in a few subjects in the sixth form, and we have asked the college to ensure that this is resolved. You can help by ensuring that you seek guidance on how to improve in all your subjects.
You are being given the very best of opportunities to prepare for success in your lives after you leave school, and you are making the very best of these opportunities. Congratulations to you and your college, and I wish you all the best for the future.
With best wishes"
John English Lead inspector
