What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 12 November 2024
Uxbridge is an inclusive high school, where pupils say, 'opportunities are provided for all'. The school values of 'PROUD' (positive, respectful, open-minded, unique and determined), are realised across the school. There is a relentless drive for all pupils to achieve the school'' 'gold standards'. Pupils feel safe, they enjoy coming to school. This is demonstrated by pupils' strong levels of attendance. They behave well and are eager to learn. Most pupils achieve positive outcomes in the subjects they study, including students in the sixth form. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) achieve well. The school motto is 'proud to make success happen'. An example of this in action is the exceptional opportunities on offer, which support pupils' personal development. A well- constructed curriculum enables pupils to understand the importance of many topics necessary for life in modern society, including budgeting and personal finance. Many enrichment activities, including performing arts and backstage production, cater for pupils' interests, and nurture their talents. The extensive range of extra-curricular activities, especially sports, enables pupils to thrive and experience success. A high proportion of pupils take up opportunities to be involved in pupil leadership. Students in the sixth form also take a lead on various activities involving younger pupils.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the curriculum is not implemented as successfully as in others. Sometimes, pupils are unable to remember relevant knowledge, which results in some gaps in their learning. The school should ensure that the curriculum is delivered consistently and effectively so that key knowledge is retained, and pupils remember their learning over time.
