There have been phenomenal improvements across all areas of the school. We now have established a culture of high expectations, challenging targets and ambitious goals for every pupil. The outcome of these improvements is to give our pupils the best skills and qualifications they can possibly achieve to improve their life chances. These outstanding results mean that the school is in a very good position when compared with schools in Torfaen, as well as our ‘Family’ of schools (schools identified as ‘similar’ from across Wales). This has been achieved by all stakeholders i.e. pupils, parents / carers, staff and governors being prepared to raise their expectations and drive standards up. Significant improvement has been demonstrated in all areas i.e. GCSE and A Level results, Attendance and Punctuality, Behaviour and Teaching and Learning. Achievements in the classroom are matched by success in a very wide range of other areas. Pupils have the opportunity to participate in Music and Drama, with two major School Productions annually, and choral and orchestral performances. Team activities are a strength in all major sports with clubs at lunchtime, after school and before school encouraging still wider participation.
