What the school inspection says

Date of report
2024
Verdict *
Outstanding
“Pupils’ exemplary behaviour and positive attitudes to learning reflect leaders’ high expectations. They show respect for each other and for staff … Pupils are very well prepared for life beyond the school. The curriculum includes important preparation for their next stages in education, employment and/or training … The vast array of lunchtime clubs and extracurricular activities has something for everyone. Many pupils take part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award. Others enjoy, for example, debating, engineering and knitting clubs.”
