Once groups are identified it is transferring those numbers into intervention strategies and securing the best outcomes for the individual pupils.

I also give them time to be reflective and so utilise and develop their own leadership skills. Under my leadership Science results increased year on year and have reached record high. I believe in accountability, self- belief and investing in people resulting in several members of my department going on to other leadership roles. What was the Impact of your Ofsted 2015 includes how we identify students swiftly so ‘timely interventions can take support? place ensuring the students make good progress’. My role then and even more so now allows me to play a key role in student progress, the identification of key groups and so support improvement. The Ofsted Report 2015 commented that science was making consistently good progress against challenging targets for all year groups. This was confirmed by students’ books and our own internal data systems. The Ofsted Report stated ‘… the rate of progress is significantly above average in science and modern foreign languages.’ This trend has continued and in the latest RAISE 2016 science continues to be above National Averages in all areas of science as well as the schools’ progress 8 figure of +0.15. I have played a key role in shifting the culture from the C/D key marginal students to progress for all students and working with colleagues on strategies to get the best progress measure for our school.

The percentage of SEND students is significantly higher than national average whilst the cohort of disadvantaged students is broadly in line with the national average. Our motto of ‘Inspiring all to achieve’ is at the heart of everything we do. We have worked hard as a school community on our vision and values.
