What the school inspection says

“The school aims to prepare pupils for life and the challenges of the modern world through enabling them to develop their individual gifts. Pupils display good levels of knowledge, understanding and skills and have good communication skills … A close-knit bond is established between pupils and adults through tutorial contact twice daily and pupils’ high standards are strongly supported by the school’s senior leaders who exemplify the school’s expectations. Pupils’ self-knowledge and self-esteem are high … which ensures that each young person is able to develop significant levels of self-confidence and resilience.” There were short visits in 2017, 2021 and 2022, a regulatory compliance visit in 2020 and a routine inspection in 2024.
