Leaders ensure that the school is academically ambitious and nurtures pupils' personal and social development. Pupils are happy here and safeguarding is effective. They are encouraged to look after their mental health. The behaviour of pupils reflects leaders' high expectations of them. Pupils report that bullying is rare. When it does occur, it is dealt with swiftly by leaders. Older pupils help to organise events that value and encourage respect for different cultures and faiths. In the sixth form, students are role models to younger pupils and take on leadership roles in the school. Leaders have very high expectations for what pupils can achieve, including in the sixth form. The curriculum is ambitious for all pupils. In some subjects, pupils start learning GCSE content before the start of Year 10. Leaders ensure that all pupils continue to study a broad, rich curriculum until the end of Year 9. Pupils are inspired by their teachers to consider a wide range of career pathways. Pupils from Year 7 upwards hear from a wide range of professional visiting speakers. They are taught employability skills such as interview techniques and financial management.
