- "Results in external examinations are outstanding. They have been consistently very good year on year."
- "Leadership of high quality provides clear direction and promotes high standards."
- "Results in all core subjects were above local and national figures."
- "In both key stages, almost all pupils of differing abilities, including those with SEN, achieve extremely well regardless of their social, ethnic or linguistic background."
- "Teachers are highly qualified, motivated and passionate about their work. They have outstanding subject knowledge. They use this knowledge and understanding well to monitor closely pupils’ progress. They provide high quality teaching and learning during the school day and as part of the extensive out-of-hours’ learning programme."
