We are proud to share with our community our Ofsted report.
The report confirms what we already know of our school as it is a conscious decision and collective effort to continually grow as we do.
Our vision to achieve ‘nothing less than positive progress and wellbeing for all’ is reality.
We are ‘Strong’ in all areas.
“The school has a highly positive atmosphere, and pupils make the best of their time inside and outside the classroom.”
“Pupils, including those who are disadvantaged or who have special educational needs and/or disabilities, feel a strong sense of belonging to the school.”
“Pupils follow an ambitious, highly academic curriculum and receive highly effective teaching.”
“Pupils deepen their knowledge and skills, and are very well prepared for their next steps in education.”
“Pupils relish opportunities to extend their learning.”
Post 16 “Students take on leadership roles and make a significant contribution to the life of the school. They champion important causes, such as sustainability, human rights and celebrating cultural diversity.”
“Leaders at all levels are reflective and make a consistently positive contribution to the school’s work.”
“Leaders and staff have a consistently positive impact on pupils who face barriers to their learning and/or wellbeing.”
“Pupils are highly considerate of each other and celebrate each others' differences.”
“This caring, respectful culture is modelled by leaders and staff, who know individuals very well.”
Pupils “recognise the positive contribution that they can make to society, such as through social action and charity work.”
“Staff wellbeing is a priority.”
We celebrate this validation, with gratitude to our community, and look forward to the next chapter of our Denmark Road story.
