The report says student behaviour is satisfactory at the school

The school was strongly criticised after an inspection at the end of 2002, which claimed a high proportion of lessons were unsatisfactory.

The findings of the latest inspection reveal progress has been good in the quality of teaching and student behaviour.

But the report does point to areas which need to be worked on.

Literacy skills

The 2002 report claimed the school's management team was dysfunctional and had failed to harmonise a severely divided school.

Shortly after the report came out, the school's head teacher Richard Quenault resigned. He was replaced by Richard Rolfe in June.

Inspectors returned to Le Rocquier in November.

Their latest report says the quality of teaching and student behaviour is now satisfactory, and that good leadership has provided the school with clear direction.

But it also claims students are not making enough progress in the development of their literacy skills.

Use of information and communication technology also needs to be improved and the number of teaching assistants need to be increased, it said.
