Inspection excerpt

Verbatim from the published report (Ofsted inspection report). Open the full PDF for context.

Leaders have not acted quickly enough to stem the decline in the quality of the school's work since the last inspection. This has had a negative impact on pupils' experience. Staffing turbulence has compounded that. On the whole, pupils do not have especially positive attitudes to their learning. They do not achieve as well as they should.
