Read MoreOfsted Inspection report
Published 11/12/24We are pleased to be able to share with you the report from our recent Ofsted inspection. It is important to note that the inspectorate made a change to their framework at the start of this academic year by removing the ‘overall effectiveness’ grade, so that schools no longer receive a single grade judgement.
We are absolutely delighted with the narrative of this report: the inspectors have highlighted some of the aspects of our school of which we are most proud. Our students, your children, showed the very best of themselves throughout the 2 days that the inspection team was with us and we are, as always, incredibly proud of every member of our school community.
