Representation: In balance. The socio-economic mix and ethnic representation are both in balance with the local community.

Attendance: Excellent. Pupil absence rates are very low and the incidence of persistent absence is quite low.

Progress: Above average. Progress in maths, reading and writing are all above average. (This takes into account pupils' prior performance. For actual grades, see Attainment.)

Admissions: Above average. The occupancy rate is very low and the offer rate is quite low.

Environment: Below average. Air pollution and traffic accidents are very high, while crime is quite low.

Finances: Poor. This is because the school budget has been in deficit

Attainment: Poor. Maths attainment is poor, reading is poor and GPS (grammar, punctuation and spelling) is about average. (This doesn't take into account pupils' prior performance. For that, see Progress.)

Disadvantaged pupils: There is no information about the progress of disadvantaged pupils.
