It is very well led and it prepares all its pupils for the next stage in their education effectively, helping them to achieve good standards in much of their work and activities. The management of the school is sound. Greater clarity is required in the definition of the roles and responsibilities among senior staff if the strategic development of the school is to be effective. The school is successful in its declared aims of ensuring intellectual development alongside self-respect, self-discipline, consideration for others and good manners.'
