澳门图库资料 was most recently inspected by in February 2023. Inspectors spent two days at the school, experiencing many aspects of everyday school life and also observing students' behaviour both in and out of the classroom. Formal meetings were held with the senior leadership team, governors, teaching staff and trustees. In addition to scrutinising samples of the students' work, the inspectors also talked with students about their experiences at Congleton High and their behaviour. The views of parents, carers, staff and students were also sought via Ofsted's anonymous online feedback questionnaires and taken into consideration.
The subsequent report (see below) positively addresses all aspects of the school, including leadership, teaching, governance and the student body, praising Congleton High as ‘a warm, welcoming place to learn and work’.
The report praises many of the other strengths of the school, including:
- ‘Pupils, staff and leaders embrace the vision for the school community. They strive to ‘achieve success together’.’
- ‘From Year 7 to 13, pupils respect each other and are considerate of each other’s differences.’
- ’Pupils are confident that leaders and staff will listen to their concerns. They trust staff to sort out any concerns they may have.’
- ‘Leaders are ambitious for all pupils.’ and ‘Leaders place as much emphasis on pupils’ personal development as they do on their academic achievement.’
- ‘Leaders, governors and trustees have put in place a broad and balanced curriculum.’ and ‘The curriculum is shaped well to meet pupils’ needs, interests and aspirations.’
- ‘Teachers have strong subject knowledge…they use this expertise to help pupils remember and apply the essential knowledge and skills they have been taught.’
- ’Pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are typically successful in their learning.’
- ‘The school’s careers programme is highly effective.’
- ‘Almost all pupils in Year 11 and Year 13 progress to employment, education or training.’
The report gives a fair assessment of what we do well at 澳门图库资料 and also provides us with a focus for how we can continue to be even better. We will be using this information, along with the views of students, parents, carers and staff to make our next steps on this journey of improvement.
澳门图库资料 has now been graded as a ‘Good’ school since 2010 and we are delighted that they have confirmed that our work in safeguarding students remains ‘'effective'. ‘Leaders ensure that the protection of pupils from risk and potential harm is at the forefront of their work. The experienced safeguarding team is supported by staff who are knowledgeable and alert to any issues pupils may face.’
