Official Ofsted Grade

Not judged

Ofsted introduced a new inspection framework in September 2024 that replaced single-word overall judgments (Outstanding, Good, etc.) with detailed report cards across multiple sub-categories. Schools inspected under this new framework receive individual sub-judgments but no overall effectiveness grade, which is why they show as “Not judged” for the overall rating.

Graded inspection: 8 Jul 2025
