The Arnewood School offers GCSEs, Level 2 BTECs and a Level 2 VTCT as programmes of study for KS4 pupils. [4] Students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A Levels, Level 3 BTECs and a Level 2 VTCT. [5] The school was judged as "outstanding" by Ofsted in January 2013. [6] It was judged as "good" by Ofsted in October 2018. [7] It was judged as “inadequate” (the lowest rating) by Ofsted in 2024. [8]

The current headteacher, Jamie Anderson, was formerly a Deputy Headteacher at Bournemouth School until December 2022, after which he became headteacher at Arnewood. Pupils familiar with both schools have recognised some Bournemouth School ethos, methods and slogans (such as “Ready, Respectful, Safe”) being used at Arnewood.
