Outcome at the 2 March 2026 inspection: not fully compliant
Since then: a follow-up visit on 3 July 2026. The inspectorate wrote: “On the basis of this visit, there is no evidence to suggest that the school does not meet the regulatory requirements for Standard 4 (The suitability of proprietors and staff).”
The band shown above reflects this later visit, not the earlier report. Read the visit report ↗

Pupil–teacher ratio: not published — independent schools aren’t in the DfE workforce census, and filed accounts don’t separate teaching staff.
Capital trend: only one year of capital spend is on record, so a multi-year under-investment signal can’t be computed yet.
Computed 2026-06-20 · pipeline ct-derived-1.0.0. Indicators, not verdicts — each is traceable to its source.
