Teaching & academics

The school teaches towards GCSE, and its published headline results sit well below national benchmarks: an Attainment 8 score of 8.4 against a national average of 46.9, and 0% of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths compared with 47% nationally. With so few pupils on roll, these figures should be read with caution, as a very small cohort can swing headline measures dramatically. Parents would do well to discuss the school's approach to individual progress directly, given how much a tiny setting can tailor support.

The last word

A very small independent school where scale, not statistics, is the story. Visit in person and ask hard questions about how each pupil is supported.
