Teaching & academics
The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded St Peter's its top judgement of "excellent" for the quality of pupils' achievement. That rating, in a school of this scale, points to teaching that can be closely tailored to each child. Families should note, however, that the ISI found the school did not meet all regulatory compliance requirements at inspection, which is worth raising directly with the school.
