David described how a new school, including a 6th form, is being built from the 'bottom up' within the old school. The 6th form will definitely be open in four years' time, possibly one year sooner.
Parents asked why send our children to a school with such poor GCSE results. David understood that no parent would take a risk with their child's education, and emphasised that going to RPA is NOT a leap of faith,
- in Septenber there will be a significant improvement in GCSE results, achieved without changing the profile of the students
- 'level 5' students who entered Year 7 in September 2010 have made better than expected progress in their first year
- ongoing improvement in quality of teaching
Parents commented that improvement in behaviour outside the school grounds needs to continue further and smartly dressed students would give a better impression of the school to the local community.
