Ofsted reports

Ofsted (the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills) is the government department that inspects and regulates care and educational services for children and young people.

Ofsted inspects all English maintained schools and academies at least once every three years. It then publishes a public report on the school’s performance, students’ work, observation reports on lessons and views from staff, parents and students, and makes suggestions for improvements that the school is expected to put into practice. The report makes judgements on:

  • achievements and standards
  • pupils’ development and wellbeing
  • the quality of teaching and learning
  • how the curriculum is taught
  • the care, guidance and support the school provides
  • how well the school is led and managed.

Schools are rated on a four-point scale: Outstanding, Good, Requires improvement and Inadequate.

Our latest full Ofsted inspection visit took place in November 2021. We were judged as a "Good" school.

Leaders have carefully developed clearly sequenced teaching plans for each subject. They are clear about the knowledge that pupils need to be well prepared for every stage of their education. Because of this, pupils achieve well overall. Teachers are offered a wide range of professional development opportunities to support their subject knowledge.
