Uniform costs

DfE statutory guidance asks schools to keep uniform costs down, to say clearly what is required and what is optional, and to say where second-hand uniform can be bought.

Ofsted

Report cardNo overall grade. Inspected 23/06/2026

Ofsted report cards (from November 2025) grade each area on a five-point scale: Exceptional, Strong standard, Expected standard, Needs attention, Urgent improvement. Safeguarding standards are not graded: they are met or not met. Ofsted gives no overall grade, and none is worked out here.

Area	Judgement
Safeguarding standards	Met
Inclusion	Needs attention
Curriculum and teaching	Needs attention
Achievement	Needs attention
Attendance and behaviour	Expected standard
Personal development and wellbeing	Expected standard
Early years	Expected standard
Leadership and governance	Needs attention

Inspection history

Date	Outcome
23/06/2026	Report card: Expected standard in 3 areas, Needs attention in 4; safeguarding standards met
15/06/2022	Good
14/06/2016	Good

Ofsted management information, as at 30 September 2026, via WhatSchool: Ofsted may have published a newer report since. Since September 2024 Ofsted no longer gives a single overall grade at new inspections, so a one-word grade, where shown, belongs to the inspection date beside it. Ungraded inspections give no grade and are dated by month only. Inspections from September 2024 to November 2025 grade key judgements; report cards (from November 2025) grade evaluation areas.
