We’re officially a good sixth form college.

We had an Ofsted inspection 15-17 January 2018 and our latest Ofsted report has been published on their website.

The inspectors looked at the effectiveness of leadership & management, the quality of teaching, learning and assessment, personal development, behaviour and welfare and outcomes for learners. We are delighted that we achieved a ‘good’ grade across all four areas!
 

SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE OFFICIAL REPORT INCLUDE:

“Senior leaders have worked hard to promote a culture of high expectations”
