Inspection excerpt

Verbatim from the published report (School inspection: Outstanding School inspection · 21 March 2023). Open the full PDF for context.

This is a school where all pupils, regardless of their background, thrive. Staff are wonderfully ambitious about what pupils can learn. They know their subjects well and teach exciting and inspirational lessons. Pupils flourish here. They are eager to learn and they work very hard. Teachers promote a love of books. The ‘snug’ is a very special space to read and be lost in the world of stories.
