Good (2019) — Rated under the pre-September 2024 inspection system
This school has not yet been inspected under the report-card system introduced in November 2025. When it is, this section will show a grade for each area — Ofsted says the new grades do not map onto the old ones, so we do not predict them.
Inspected 14 November 2019, published 1 December 2019. Read the full Ofsted report
England has three coexisting inspection systems — how we translate them into one signal.

“Not published (small cohort)” means the DfE suppressed the figure to protect small cohorts — it is not a zero.

First-choice demand varies year to year, and the school’s admission criteria — not demand — decide who is offered a place. Use this as a rough signal, never a prediction.
