Inspection report: <strong>Anglo</strong> <strong>European</strong> <strong>School</strong>, 18–19 January 2011 5 of 14<br />
Inspection grades: 1 is outstanding, 2 is good, 3 is satisfactory, and 4 is inadequate<br />
Please turn to the glossary for a description of the grades and inspection terms<br />
emphasis being placed on what the teacher does in a lesson, rather than its impact on<br />
learning.<br />
Up to 40% of the schools whose overall effectiveness is judged satisfactory may receive a<br />
monitoring visit by an <strong>Ofsted</strong> inspector before their next section 5 inspection.<br />
What does the school need to do to improve further?<br />
�� Improve the progress that students make in their learning, so that it is at least<br />
good, by ensuring that the best practice in the following areas is standard practice in<br />
lessons:<br />
maintaining a good pace of teaching and learning<br />
using data more comprehensively in setting tasks that are related to the abilities<br />
of individual students<br />
checking students' understanding during lessons and adapting the teaching<br />
where necessary.<br />
��Ensure that the monitoring of teaching quality is robust by:<br />
ensuring that judgements about the quality of teaching in each lesson take fully<br />
into account the extent of learning that takes place in the lesson.<br />
Outcomes for individuals and groups of pupils 3<br />
Students reach above average standards in their work. The proportion of students who<br />
achieve five or more higher grade GCSE passes, including English and mathematics, is<br />
significantly above the national average. The proportion who achieve a higher grade pass<br />
in a modern foreign language is almost three times the national average. All groups of<br />
students of significant size attain more highly in their best eight subjects, including English<br />
and mathematics, than do their counterparts nationally. However, when they arrive in<br />
Year 7, students' attainment is above average and the progress they make in their<br />
learning, both overall and in specific subject such as English and mathematics is<br />
satisfactory. This was the case in the GCSE examinations in 2010 and inspectors confirmed<br />
this in their observation of lessons. Students who have special educational needs and/or<br />
disabilities are appropriately supported so that they also make satisfactory progress.<br />
Students' high attendance, outstanding behaviour and attitudes to work make a good<br />
contribution to the progress they make both in their academic learning and in their<br />
personal development. They are polite, respectful of others and at ease when speaking<br />
with adults. The exclusion rate is very low and this reflects the quality of behaviour seen in<br />
classrooms and around the school generally. The students' questionnaires showed that<br />
they feel very safe in school.
