Year 9 English ( KS3) - awaiting results
Some schools' put extreme pressure upon their pupils to achieve good SAT results.
In primaries across the country, very little goes on in year 6 other than cramming
for SATs. Moorland takes a very low key relaxed approach, making these results
even more superb. Academic work at Moorland has always been performed at a high
standard, our children are never allowed to stand still. They are encouraged to
work to the full extent of their abilities and our teachers are all caring professionals.
Moorland is a growing and progressive school which celebrates the individual.
Talents are recognised and developed to the full.
