Inspection: June 2001: 'Braeside has a very good senior school which has significant strengths. Standards of achievement and progress are high in relation to the wide ability range of the pupils. In two-thirds of the lessons observed, the quality of the teaching was good or very good and in the remainder it was satisfactory in all but a few lessons. The teachers are strongly committed to the pupils? education, pastoral care and welfare. The provision for pupils? personal development is of high quality. The school needs to prepare a whole-school development plan that sets out a programme of curriculum, teaching and management development, broaden the range of extra-curricular activities and introduce an appraisal process for the staff.'
