There is no religious character and no boarding provision. Head Miss Lucy Harrison leads what is, by any measure, an unusually intimate setting.

Teaching & academics
The published headline results sit far below national averages: an Attainment 8 score of 1.1 against a national figure of 46.9, and no pupils recording grade 5 or above in English and Maths, where the national average is 47 per cent. With so few pupils, these figures should be read with real caution, as a single cohort or a tiny number of entries can skew percentages dramatically. Families will want to discuss directly with the school how teaching and assessment work given its size.

The last word
An exceptionally small independent school where the numbers tell only part of the story. A visit and frank conversation with the head will matter more here than any league table.
