Overall effectiveness Good
"Pupils make good progress and achieve well in a range of subjects because teaching is consistently good, with examples of outstanding practice, throughout the school."; "Leaders have improved the school's systems for assessing pupils' attainment and their progress over time, so that staff can act promptly to prevent pupils from underachieving."; "Senior leaders, working closely with the local authority and other schools, have acted decisively to improve the quality of teaching, especially in mathematics."'; "Teachers do not always check pupils' learning thoroughly enough during lessons, in order to ensure that they are all working at the right level."
