Admissions
Nursery places are applied for directly, not through the Reception or Year 7 process. A nursery place does not guarantee a Reception place at any school.
Inspection
Ofsted ungraded inspection, 4 May 2023: School remains Outstanding
An ungraded inspection confirms or questions the previous grade; it does not set a new one.
Last overall grade: Outstanding, given on 23 October 2013
Historic. This is the last time Ofsted gave the school a single overall grade. Overall grades were abolished for state schools in September 2024.
