What this record means

The wording is Ofsted’s, not ours.

The outcome above is reproduced from the Ofsted release exactly as published. Ofsted has used several inspection frameworks over this period, so outcomes are not all on one scale: a graded judgement such as “Good” is not directly comparable with an ungraded result such as “School remains Good” or with a monitoring outcome. Where a field is missing it is missing from the source, which is not a judgement about the school. The published report is the authoritative record.
