In early September 2017, it was reported that students were forced to line up in the rain while the principal compared the students' trousers with a swatch of fabric supplied by Total Sport, to ensure the grey trousers were from this supplier. These cost £15.99, while similar products were available for £7.00 elsewhere. Students not wearing the "required" trousers were sent home. [2]
The school has been inspected by the Ofsted five times since 2012. [3] In 2012, the inspectors deemed it "satisfactory". [4] Both inspections in 2013 saw the school judged as "requires improvement", with the inspectors commenting that "leaders and managers do not always focus their actions where they are most needed and do not check the impact on students' achievement." [5] In 2016, the school had improved sufficiently to be rated as "good", because of "... vastly raised teachers' expectations of how quickly pupils can make progress in all of the subjects they study." [6]
