Ofsted judgement
Ofsted's most recent visit was a short inspection on 18 December 2024, where inspectors found the school has improved significantly. The school's last full inspection took place before September 2019, so its area grades are not part of Ofsted's current published data. Older reports are on the school's Ofsted page.
