Summary
With a Good rating from Ofsted as of April 2024, the school offers a supportive environment for students aged 9-19, particularly those with additional needs. However, academic performance is a notable concern, as evidenced by a low Attainment 8 score of 20.1 and no students achieving a grade 4 or higher in English and Maths. Parents should weigh the strengths of the supportive atmosphere against the challenges in academic outcomes when considering this option.
