Teaching & academics

The school's headline attainment figures sit well below national averages, with an Attainment 8 score of 3.4 against a national 46.9, and no pupils currently achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths compared with a national figure of 47%. Such results need to be read in the context of an alternative provision setting and a very small cohort, where individual circumstances weigh heavily on aggregate figures. GCSEs are offered, giving pupils a route to recognised qualifications.
