This is something I am incredibly proud of. Working in a turnaround school is tough and whilst we do not work for Ofsted, it is amazing to have our hard work recognised. Every single member of the school community has worked so hard over the past three years to achieve this.

This is my favourite part of the report. The school when I joined just over two years ago is not the same one I work in today. The school was given a closure notice after two Inadequate reports and today we have a school where pupils feel valued and safe.

When I came for my interview in March 2024, I wanted to work with pupils with a similar background to myself and improve their life chances. Every single member of staff at Dixons Croxteth knows why we get up every day: to improve the education of every pupil. I am incredibly proud to work here.

I trained at De Le Salle many years ago. Wonderful community with lovely pupils but a very challenging place all the same. I am so glad to see it is in good hands and making headlines for thr right reasons.

Are our results where they need to be? No, they aren't. But in the first year, our P8 results where the third most improved in the country. There is still a lot of hard work to do, but our staff and pupils welcome it with open arms.
