The new Ofsted framework for education focuses on the full student experience, rather than simply student outcomes and other performance data. Huish was graded Outstanding across all of the four key inspection areas including quality of education, behaviour and attitude, personal development and leadership and management.
Ofsted found that:
“The strong local reputation of this college is justified. Leaders and staff establish and promote a culture of respect and high aspirations”
“Teachers set high academic standards. In turn, learners set high standards for themselves. They meet these by studying hard and making the most of the excellent opportunities the College offers.”
“Learners enjoy their time at college and feel safe as a result of the respectful relationships that exist between members of the college community”.
[The College] “provide education, encouragement and a wide range of excellent additional activities to develop learners’ knowledge, character, articulacy and ambition. As a result, learners develop their subject knowledge, a clearer understanding of their place in the local community and wider world, and pursue their interests and hobbies with enthusiasm”.
