Innovative Assessment and monitoring
Our sophisticated ‘flight-path' assessment system allows staff to analyse each individual's personal progress in relation to aspirational targets, making full use of FFT data to generate clear and easily interpreted regression lines.
Learners and parents are involved in a dialogue about progress from Year 7 through to Year 13.

Organization of the school day
Our longer sessions are ‘learning events' that encourage variety, pace of learning
and independence. Collaborative and active learning is the norm and students
are regularly engaged and challenged through participative groupwork.
In this way we build confident learners with a high level of self esteem.

Inclusion and support
Our strong mixed ability ethos has proved highly successful across the range of subjects
and Key Stages. This underpins our approach to teaching and learning, ensuring that all
students aspire to reach their own potential and are supportive of one another's learning.
Understanding and valuing peoples' diversity and equality is integral to this approach.
