Report card grades run from Exceptional to Urgent improvement (five steps, left to right). Ofsted says “expected standard” means the school is doing everything it should — “It’s a high standard”. What the grades mean.
S5 Inspection · report published 4 Mar 2026
Ungraded inspection · 23 Sep 2021
Outcome: School remains Good. An ungraded inspection checks whether a school is still at the standard of its last graded inspection; it doesn’t give new grades.

Results
No results for this school are in the performance tables we use. Results are published for schools with pupils at the end of Year 6, Year 11 or 16 to 18 study, and figures are hidden when very few pupils are involved.
