Ofsted judgement
Ofsted's most recent visit was a short inspection on 2 July 2025, where inspectors found that standards have been maintained. 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.
