OFSTED and SIAMS

In our Ofsted Inspection (December, 2021), the school was judged to be Outstanding in all categories.  To read the full report select the document below.

Our SIAMS inspection (Dec, 2025), also known as a Section 48 Inspection, judged that the school “treats students as individuals, and invests in their support, which allows them to overcome barriers to learning and flourish.  For many, the school has transformed their educational experiences and future life chances.”

A Section 48 Inspection is a regular inspection which judges the distinctiveness and effectiveness of Church of England schools.  It focuses on the impact of the school ethos and its Christian values on the academic and personal outcomes of the students in our care.

In our Ofsted Inspection (February, 2026), the inspection drew particular attention to our inclusive ethos, high standards of behaviour and outstanding personal development.  The achievements and opportunities in the Sixth Form were highlighted, in particular.  

It should be noted that, despite upholding a serious complaint into the inspection process, Ofsted did not agree to reviewing additional information which we offered to make available to them.  We do not fully recognise the report in its entirety.
