Inspection

Ofsted ungraded inspection, 26 June 2024: School remains Good

An ungraded inspection confirms or questions the previous grade; it does not set a new one.

Last overall grade: Good, given on 1 October 2014

Historic. This is the last time Ofsted gave the school a single overall grade. Overall grades were abolished for state schools in September 2024.
