Our last Ofsted inspection in March 2023 judged that the school continues to be ‘good’.  It states that the school “have continued to focus strongly on ensuring that pupils receive the support that they need. This means that pupils make at least the progress that they should, both academically and in their personal development”.

If you feel like you have the qualities and skills we are looking for then we would be delighted to receive an application from you.
