After the 2009 Ofsted report, the college was put on special measures due to the following reasons:
Safeguarding
The school did not comply with government requirements for the safety of pupils. (A technical problem of not having updated their policy on the official database).
Equal opportunities
The college failed to tackle the differences in performance between boys and girls. (A technical problem of not having updated their policy on the official database).
Attainment
Attainment has remained consistently low over the past three years and students have made significantly less progress than they should in English and mathematics.
As of October 2010, Burleigh Community College passed a follow-up inspection by Ofsted.

Famous quotes containing the word results:
“Silence is to all creatures thus attacked the only means of salvation; it fatigues the Cossack charges of the envious, the enemy’s savage ruses; it results in a cruising and complete victory.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“For every life and every act
Consequence of good and evil can be shown
And as in time results of many deeds are blended
So good and evil in the end become confounded.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
