What The Good Schools Guide says..

Results rival those of grammar schools, which is impressive for a school with a totally comprehensive admission, and one which accepts a high number of disabled and special needs pupils. The buildings are harmoniously set round courtyard spaces amid green pitches and park-like grounds. Stopping at 16 means they don’t get the national accolade that some all-through schools manage, but the girls proudly announced that they had been second nationally in U16 girls' football recently ‘and it was all decided in a penalty shoot-out at the end'....

Special Education Needs

The school has a well established and highly regarded Resourced Provision for pupils with physical disabilities. There are usually about a dozen wheelchair users at any one time and they are fully integrated into the life of the school. Admission to the Resourced Provision is controlled by Hampshire County Council. The school also has a highly effective Learning Support team, with experience of a wide variety of needs. The emphasis is on supporting pupils in mainstream classes, but there are some small withdrawal groups, particularly for literacy.
