"The high quality of teaching in the school makes a very important
contribution to the good standards that pupils achieve"

"Pupils of differing abilities work well together, showing consideration
and a willingness to support one another."

"Pupils are friendly and enthusiastic. They show pride in their work and in their school.
Attitudes towards work are exemplary; pupils are well motivated and participate willingly
in curricular and extra-curricular activites. The school operates a well ordered community
in which pupils' behaviour is of a consistently high standard"

"Sir John Nelthorpe is a good comprehensive school with a strong sense
of its own history and a clear commitment to the local area. Academic
standards in the school are good, particularly at GCSE level, where
standards achieved are well above local and national averages. The school
ethos is positive and purposful; expectations of pupils are high and pupils
rise to meet the challenges they are set."
