A+ for Octagon Academy
Congratulations to staff and students at the Octagon AP Academy, which has just earned a “good” rating from education watchdog Ofsted.
The Octagon, which supports primary and secondary pupils who have had difficulties with learning and behaviour at mainstream schools, has been transformed since its “inadequate” rating just three years ago.
Ofsted praised efforts to drive up standards, which have seen huge improvements in attendance; challenging and supportive teaching; good behaviour; good results, and the successful reintegration of many pupils back into mainstream education.
They also said that pupils have benefited from, and understand, the high quality of care and support they get at the Octagon.
