Latest Ofsted Inspection – 17th and 18th June 2025

Following our Ofsted inspection on 17th and 18th March, we are delighted to share the incredible results.

The new Ofsted rating means we no longer have a single-word judgement, but we were inspected in five key areas and graded on each – we are so proud to announce we received two ‘Outstanding’ grades and three ‘Good’ grades:

• The quality of education – Good
• Behaviour and attitudes – Outstanding
• Personal development – Outstanding
• Leadership and management – Good
• Early years provision – Good

Some key quotes from the report include:

“Pupils learn in an extremely calm and purposeful environment. They enjoy their lessons and focus exceptionally well”

“The school is unwavering in its determination to prepare pupils for life beyond school”

“The school and trust ensure that the curriculum reflects their high expectations for pupils’ learning and personal development. Pupils learn a rich curriculum and develop a broad body of knowledge”

“Through the school’s ‘be the best you can be’ themed work, pupils learn a range of new skills. This includes orienteering, archery, golf, trampolining, cricket and more. Pupils develop their talents to a high level”

“The school has high expectations for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND)”

“Pupils’ behaviour is excellent. They have developed highly positive attitudes to their learning. Pupils follow the school’s embedded routines impeccably”
