–No overall grade (2025) — Inspected 2024–2025 — no overall grade under the interim framework

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 7 January 2025, published 6 February 2025. Read the full Ofsted report

England has three coexisting inspection systems — how we translate them into one signal.

Exam results

Progress 8 is not published nationally for 2024/25 and 2025/26 while KS2 baselines are missing (no SATs in 2020/21). It returns from 2026/27.

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

Will my child get in?

Usually has places available — 0.85 first-choice applications per place (Sept 2026 entry)

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.
