Prior to the partnership, the school was rated "satisfactory" by Ofsted inspectors, who felt that the "quality of teaching was not consistent enough to ensure good learning". Prospects Improve supported the school in bettering its teaching practices and provided training to staff in helping their pupils.
The school's commitment to improvement was commended by Ofsted, who judged the school as "good" and praised staff on their excellent practices in its most recent inspection. The quality of teaching was rated as good with some outstanding practice.
Since this inspection, staff have grown in confidence and, with the help of Prospects Improve, they are now working towards achieving an outstanding grade.
Headteacher Matt Sadler said: "Through a vast array of talented consultants, Prospects has enabled us to pinpoint specific areas of focus, which has led to rapid improvement across all areas of the school. This, coupled with a hands-on, can-do attitude, has installed a strong sense of self-belief and positivity that has bred a culture of confidence throughout the school."
