Teaching & academics

Pupils work towards GCSE qualifications, the school's headline academic offering. The reported figures are striking: an Attainment 8 score of 3.7 against a national average of 46.9, and 0% of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths compared with 47% nationally. Parents should weigh these published outcomes carefully and discuss them directly with the school, particularly in the context of its very small cohort.
