History

The school came into being in September 1992 as the result of a merger of the then Kitwood Girls School and Kitwood Boys School.[ citation needed ]

School campuses

The school has two campuses, Marian Campus being the main one and Tollfield being a separate campus for Year 7s and Year 8s (formerly a campus for 6th form students, then only year 7). The campus used to be the now defunct St Bede's Catholic Science College. [2] The address of the Tollfield Campus is at 90-96 Tollfield Rd, Boston PE21 9PN. Both of the campuses are split into 'blocks', for example A block and E block.

School inspections

Ofsted inspections of the school in 2016, 2019 and 2022 all resulted in reports of "Requires Improvement", the second lowest category of performance. [3] This was despite an interim Ofsted monitoring report in December 2021 indicating that the school was making rapid progress in addressing the areas of concern. [4] [5]

The Ofsted inspection published in November 2024 reports the school as “Inadequate” for all sections except for Personal Development, which is “Requires Improvement”. [6] The spokesman for the school said that they “strongly disagree” with the report. [7]

Controversies

In 2023, the BBC reported allegations that pupils at the school were part of a system of fights being planned for social media audiences. [8] Earlier the same year, other student discipline issues were reported in the media. [9] [10] [11] The same year, students organised protests, which were happening mainly at Marian Campus, featuring walkouts and not attending lessons. In April 2024, some teachers at the school went on strike in connection with the behavioural issues of students at the school. [12]

In 2021 the assistant head of the school's music program was banned from teaching indefinitely after admitting having a sexual relationship with a pupil. [13]
