About schools in Cornwall

Cornwall lists two schools across a mix of phases. One school here provides for children with additional needs. One independent school sits outside the state system and sets its own admissions.

Ofsted inspects every school listed here. Its newer reports judge a school across several areas rather than giving one overall grade, while older reports still carry the previous single grade, so read the framework and the date on each page before you set two schools side by side. An inspection or a results table captures a school at one past moment, so use this page to draw up a shortlist and then visit.
