Children follow individualised programmes that recognise that all children flourish at different rates and in response to different challenges.

The school was graded as excellent in all categories in the recent inspection conducted by ISI in October 2022, the Independent Schools Inspectorate that conducts inspections on behalf of the Secretary of State for Education.
