Teaching & academics
The published headline figures sit below national benchmarks: an Attainment 8 score of 34.9 compares with a national average of 46.9, while the proportion securing grade 5 or above in English and Maths is recorded as 0% against a national figure of 47%. Parents will want to read these alongside the school's own context, as headline measures rarely tell the whole story for a small independent setting. A conversation with the school about how it supports individual progress would be worthwhile.
