Millais School is performing well overall, achieving a 'Good' rating across most areas with an 'Outstanding' rating for personal development. The school has made significant strides since its last inspection eight years ago, focusing on delivering a broad and rich curriculum that prepares pupils effectively for their future. Despite the positive environment and high expectations from staff, there are some challenges due to gaps in curriculum precision in a few subjects, which affects some students' ability to recall essential knowledge by key stage 4.
