What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 11 January 2023

Leaders have very high expectations of pupils' academic achievements. Staff support all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to meet these expectations. Parents and carers generally said that the school is well- organised and that leaders communicate well with parents. Typically, pupils enjoy school, behave sensibly, and are self-reliant learners. Teachers encourage pupils to be ambitious for their futures and motivate them to aim high. Pupils are safe in school. Staff address any incidents of bullying quickly and effectively. Staff encourage pupils to make the most of the opportunities that the school provides. Extra-curricular sporting experiences include rowing, cricket and Brazilian jujutsu. Pupils also sing in school choirs and take part in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award programme. Uptake by pupils of these activities is high. Teachers provide impartial careers guidance.
