Recent exam results have seen 40 per cent of students achieve A* to A while 85 per of grades were A* to C.
These results have continued the trend of the last four years and improving on grades achieved pre-pandemic.
Principal Christopher Jennings said: “I am really pleased that Ofsted recognised the efforts staff and students have gone to build such a well-rounded, family-orientated atmosphere.
"We have a fabulous group of students at the school who are a real credit to their families and the schools they came from.”
