A high school in Norfolk which inspectors say is driven by 'high aspirations' is celebrating a positive watchdog report.
After a visit at the end of November, Wymondham High Academy was told it was good in four of five categories and outstanding in the fifth, its sixth form provision.
It comes four years after the school was previously given a good rating in 2013, then its first inspection since becoming an academy.
During the visit, inspectors said leadership shared a vision for the school which is 'based upon high aspirations for its pupils'.
They praised pupils' behaviour, describing them as 'polite, courteous and respectful', and said attainment is well above average.
'Their enjoyment of school is demonstrated by their high levels of attendance and their punctuality to lessons,' the report said.
Inspectors said, since the last inspection, leaders had acted 'decisively and robustly' to identify areas of improvement.
But particular praise went to its sixth form, which inspectors said has 'tenacious' leaders. The report said: 'Study programmes are rich and the proportions of students who leave the sixth form to attend university are high.
'The sixth form is more effective than the main school because work on improving provision has had more time to embed.'
To improve, Ofsted said the school should reduce the gap in progress between disadvantaged pupils and others, and embed strategies to support pupils who have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
Principal Jonathan Rockey said he was proud of the report, and particularly the 'fantastic achievement' of securing outstanding for its post-16 education.
'The judgement is testament to the hard work of pupils and staff and demonstrates what can be achieved by having high expectations and standards,' he said. 'While we are justifiably proud of our outcomes, the report also reflects the wider commitment to our young people and their contribution to social change in the wider community.'
He said the report acted as a 'springboard' to further improvements.
