From the inspection on 17 October 2023

Pupils are proud to attend this school. Leaders set high expectations, so that pupils behave extremely well, achieve highly and are ambitious for their futures. Pupils thrive on meeting these expectations. Staff and pupils work harmoniously and, as a result, pupils feel safe, happy and excel. Pupils' behaviour and attitudes across the school are exceptional. Leaders have developed a very ambitious curriculum, enhanced by an extensive range of wider opportunities. The education offered at Twyford is unique and highly developed. Leaders enable teachers being both experts in their subject and teaching, equipped to deliver a broad curriculum that is well planned, challenging, and enjoyable. Pupils work hard and want to do well for themselves. A strong culture of pupil achievement and well-being motivates staff to inspire, so that pupils achieve excellence. Pupils have many wider experiences provided, which develop pupils' wider enrichment opportunities. Leaders provide many opportunities for pupils to explore music, sport, and chaplaincy. A high number of pupils take part in in house competitions and the Duke of Edinburgh's Award programme.
