What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 21 January 2025

This school provides an exceptional education. Leaders have very high expectations for all pupils. The exciting and creative curriculum includes many opportunities to enrich pupils' learning and develop their characters to ensure that they are well prepared for life in modern Britain. As a result of all of this, pupils achieve highly across different subjects. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They listen respectfully to adults and to each other. In lessons, they are highly motivated and keen to join in, show strong self-control and stay on task well. Pupils understand the behaviour rules of the school and recognise the impact of poor behaviour on others. Pupils are kept safe. If they have a concern, they can name a trusted adult they can talk to who they know will deal with their worries appropriately. The school provides a huge range of ways to support pupils' wider development. This includes different clubs, visitors, and trips to places such as museums and places of worship. Pupils are proud of the tolerance and diversity in the school. It is important to them that everyone is valued for who they are. One pupil explained it as, 'We accept everyone, we are all equal.'
