"This is an outstanding school. At its last inspection, it was outstanding in all main categories. Since then it has significantly improved not just in respect of the areas for development identified in that inspection but also in terms of major developments to its educational provision for pupils and in the response that these have generated." Ofsted, June 09
We are proud to show you our outstanding school in the depths of rural Herefordshire, complete with students, adults and animals.
One of the very smallest schools in Britain and one of the very best
if Ofsted, exam results and league tables, parents and students are
anything to go by. Small schools can provide a completely rounded
experience and a full range of opportunities - social, creative,
sporting, as well as superb exam results. It requires dedication,
vision, commitment and energy and a mutual respect and purpose
among everyone who works and studies at the school.
