Ofsted Report – February 2026
Celebrating Our Ofsted Report
We are delighted to share our excellent Ofsted report, which reflects the hard work, dedication, and vibrant spirit of our entire school community. The inspectors recognised the strong values that underpin everything we do and praised the positive, inclusive culture that our students and staff create together every day.
The report highlights many areas we are truly proud of, including:
Strong Standards in the Inclusion and Attendance and Behaviour categories
Confident, enthusiastic students who show pride in their school and have a real sense of belonging
A warm, supportive and safe atmosphere where every child feels valued and supported so that they can play a full active role in school life
A comprehensive Personal Development Programme in which students get to benefit from many opportunities to learn about the wider world and develop the skills they need for adult life
A suitably ambitious curriculum which meets the needs of all our students
This outcome of the inspection that took place in February this year is a testament to the commitment of our staff, the support of our families, and the hard work of our amazing students. We are thrilled to see our shared efforts recognised and celebrated.
We are excited to continue building on this success as we move forward, ensuring our school remains a joyful, nurturing, and high‑achieving place for every child.
