Teaching & academics

At its most recent inspection, the Independent Schools Inspectorate judged the school's quality of education to be good. The small roll allows for close attention to individual pupils across the 3 to 11 age range. Parents should note, however, that the same inspection found the school did not meet all compliance standards, an area worth discussing directly with the school.
