Outstanding (2019)

Last grade Ofsted published, no newer grade exists

Ofsted graded this school Outstanding in 2019. Every inspection since has been ungraded, and an ungraded inspection cannot change a grade. The most recent found “Standards maintained”. Ofsted's current data file lists only graded inspections from September 2019 onwards, so this grade has dropped out of it, but it is still the school's grade of record, and still on Ofsted's own report page. Treat an Outstanding of this age with care: Outstanding schools were exempt from routine re-inspection until 2020, so these grades are among the oldest on record.
