What the school inspection says
“Leaders’ expectations of pupils are very high in all aspects of school life. Pupils study a challenging curriculum and are very well prepared to become responsible citizens … Pupils take part in a wide range of after-school activities. Of particular note is the number of clubs started and run by pupils. For example, the Afro-Caribbean society and the art and rocket clubs … Parents and carers overwhelmingly praise the school. One parent reflected the views of many [by] saying, ‘My child is very happy in this exciting, challenging, diverse school.”
*Ofsted no longer makes an overall effectiveness judgment in inspections of state-funded schools. A five-point grading scale, including a new “exceptional” grade was introduced in November 2025.
