What the school inspection says

Date of report
2023
Verdict *
Outstanding
“Pupils achieve academic excellence and contribute positively to all aspects of school life. They are proud to be a part of this diverse and inclusive community. Pupils benefit from an exceptional enrichment offer. The school provides numerous, varied opportunities to nurture, develop and stretch pupils’ talents and interests. Pupils speak highly of these and make good use of them. They often take the lead and are instrumental in establishing new clubs and societies, such as law society, debating club, and gothic film club, as well as events such as ‘culture day’. The school has ensured there is something for everyone ... The school’s motto, ‘Ludus supra praemium’, emphasises the value of wholeheartedly being part of the school community. Pupils are on board with this and strive to achieve their personal best. They successfully gain places at their chosen universities to study degrees, apprenticeships and other courses.”
