Ofsted

We are pleased to share the outcome of Ofsted’s monitoring inspection, which took place on 17^th and 18^th March 2026.

This visit followed the full inspection that took place over two years ago and, while it was not a graded inspection and therefore could not result in a new Ofsted Report Card, inspectors once again recognised the positive progress being made across the school.

The report highlights the important improvements secured since the previous monitoring inspection and acknowledges the continued work of leaders, staff and trustees in driving the school forward. Inspectors found that leaders’ actions have strengthened pupils’ behaviour, that lessons are calm, and that staff contribute to the generally polite and happy atmosphere around the school through their visible presence and high expectations.

Ofsted also recognised the ongoing work to strengthen the quality of education that pupils receive and the valuable improvements made to provision for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Trustees were praised for maintaining a robust and accurate view of the school’s performance, ensuring that improvement remains focused on securing the best outcomes for pupils.

Importantly, the report confirms that safeguarding remains effective, reflecting the school’s continued commitment to providing a safe, supportive and positive environment in which all pupils can learn and thrive.

We are proud that Ofsted has once again recognised our improvement journey and the progress that has been made. While we remain ambitious for further improvement, this report reflects the dedication and hard work of our staff, students, trustees and wider school community as we continue to build on these successes.
