What the school inspection says

“Pupils value the school’s caring and nurturing ethos. They are enthusiastic about the changes the school has undergone in the last two years … Pupils achieve very well, as do students in the sixth form … The new house system helps pupils to feel a sense of shared identity and community in the school.”
Inspection
2024
*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.
