Admissions: Excellent. The occupancy rate is very low.
Environment: About average. Air pollution and traffic accidents are quite low, while crime is quite high.
Progress: Poor. Progress in maths is below average, in reading it is below average and in writing it is poor. (This takes into account pupils' prior performance. For actual grades, see Attainment.)
Finances: Poor. This is because the school budget has been in deficit
Disadvantaged pupils: Poor. Progress in maths, reading and writing are all poor.
Attainment: Poor. Maths, reading and GPS (grammar, punctuation and spelling) attainment are all poor. (This doesn't take into account pupils' prior performance. For that, see Progress.)
Attendance: Poor. Pupil absence rates and the incidence of persistent absence are both very high.
Representation: Out of balance. The socio-economic mix and ethnic representation are both out of balance with the local community. Show details
