During an additional inspection in music during October 2008, the school was graded "good" for music provision. Later, in 2011, the school was rated 'Outstanding' by OFSTED and subsequently converted to an Academy.As a science specialist school, it offers its more capable students Triple Award Science at GCSE as well as other Additional Sciences.A new reception area, drama studio, events hall and library were recently built, all of which were designed to improve the school's facilities; the canteen was also updated, and most classrooms received various renovations.
