According to a 2009 Ofsted report, "It capitalises on its small size by providing a very welcoming and friendly ethos where relationships are very good and students and staff know each other well." It was classed as a good school and was noted for outstanding attendance and behaviour.[1]
The school converted the disused garage into a state of the art design facility as part of their design and technology department. It was opened by Tim Farron, local MP, on 10 November 2008.The school is also fully accessible[2]
