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

Progress: About average. Progress in maths is poor, in reading it is above average and in writing it is below average. (This takes into account pupils' prior performance. For actual grades, see Attainment.)

Representation: Slightly out of balance. The socio-economic mix and ethnic representation are both slightly out of balance with the local community.

Admissions: Below average. The occupancy rate and offer rate are both very high.
