What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 February 2025

Staff are highly dedicated to the school. Pupils and their families value staff's care and commitment. Exceptionally high expectations are set for pupils academically and for their personal development. Pupils' academic success is reflected in the consistently above- average published outcomes. The school is inclusive. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) learn and progress very well. Everyone plays an active role in the school. Pupils' behaviour and attitudes towards learning are exemplary. They live and display the 'Marylebone five' attitudes of being curious, responsive, compassionate, imaginative and courageous in all they do. Pupils rightly feel safe in the school. They share any concerns with trusted adults. There is extensive support for pupils with their mental health and well-being. Bullying is not tolerated in the school, and if it does happen, staff address it quickly. Pupils thrive, developing their interests and talents excellently. The arts are at the heart of the school. There is an impressive range of extra-curricular activities, and a considerable number of these are led by pupils. Students in the sixth form act as excellent role models and inspire younger pupils to lead. At lunchtimes, the buzz of pupils singing, walking, running to the local park, playing sports and dancing is vibrant. This reflects the strong community, which thrives on pupils learning and performing together.
