Ofsted:
Following our recent Ofsted inspection in February 2024 the school was judged as Good with outstanding for behaviour and attitudes and personal development. Inspectors described how pupils have “extremely positive attitudes to learning” and “are highly focused during lessons”. They also highlighted how school leaders “have developed a curriculum that is ambitious and in line with the expectations of the national curriculum”.
