Ofsted inspections

Shown exactly as Ofsted published them, each with its own date.

Ungraded inspection · 29 Mar 2023

This inspection was of a predecessor school, before it reopened under its current reference number. Ofsted says grades of a predecessor school can’t, in law, transfer to the new one.

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.
