Pupils come from a catchment area which includes the nearby town of Tadley and the villages of Silchester, Bramley, Sherborne St John and Pamber Heath.[1]
Curriculum
The school teaches a variety of subjects which are examined at GCSE level or through BTEC awards. Pupils follow the National Curriculum.[1]
Performance
The most recent OFSTED inspection took place in 2019. This was a short inspection where the school was judged to be 'Good'. The full inspection in May 2015 also judged the school as 'Good'. Feedback from the 2019 inspection included the following comments: "Pupils are well behaved, confident and articulate. They explain their views thoughtfully and clearly. They are proud of the active role that they are encouraged to play in shaping the school community." "The leadership team has ensured that all safeguarding arrangements are fit for purpose. These arrangements combine to create a culture of safeguarding throughout the school."
OFSTED previously inspected the school in May 2001. They concluded that the school was "a very good school with some excellent features", which had improved significantly since the previous inspection in 1997.
