Independent and selective (grammar) schools choose their pupils, so high results partly reflect who gets in, not only teaching. Some independent schools don't publish results.

Read what Ofsted said (5)

From Ofsted report, inspected Dec 2024

Strengths

  • “The school’s vision of a ‘safe, happy and learning community’ is entirely realised.”
  • “This is because the school is inclusive, placing pupils right at the heart of its work.”
  • “The school strives for academic excellence alongside developing the whole individual.”

To improve

  • “A few staff do not make consistent use of the school’s approaches in the sixth form.”
  • “As a result, students do not achieve or develop as well as compared to the rest of the school.”
