A secondary school has been praised in a report by inspectors who have labelled it "good".
Ofsted officials who visited Ratton School in Park Avenue, Eastbourne, on March 20 and 21 said the school was outward looking and prepared to work with others. The 1,183 mixed school has specialist status for performing arts.
In her report inspector Steffi Penny said: "Good leadership and management have ensured that the school has been successful in improving achievement and standards."
She said the school needed to ensure marking helped students understand how to improve their work and should work more closely with parents to help students improve behaviour.
