What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 24 January 2024

Pupils are delighted to be a part of this school. They prosper in this school community, which cares deeply for them. Pupils are safe in school. They are confident that if they have any concerns or worries, they can go to any adult for help. The school has the highest aspirations for all its pupils. Pupils are encouraged to be kind, inclusive, scholarly, inspired, and resilient. Pupils achieve very well in assessments, reaching standards which, in most cases, are higher than those found nationally. They produce work of consistently high quality across different subjects and are very well prepared for the next stage of their education. Pupils' behaviour is exceptional. They are polite, courteous and respectful towards each other and towards adults. Pupils are confident and articulate. They follow instructions promptly and effectively. The school is highly successful in ensuring that pupils attend regularly. This is because pupils, parents and carers value the high-quality education here. Those who are at risk of non-attendance are identified and supported at the earliest opportunity. Parents appreciate the excellent education their children receive from the school. The comment of one parent echoed those of many others: 'Great teaching, rich and ambitious curriculum, wonderful communication, supportive atmosphere, and outstanding results.'
