    What Ofsted found

    Every Ofsted visit

    Ofsted inspects independent schools that don't belong to an association inspected by ISI. Choose a year to see what they found.

    A shorter visit in June 2026

    Ofsted visited before the school opened to check whether it was likely to meet the independent school standards. It's the most up-to-date view of the school, so it's worth reading before you visit.
