ISI report
“Pupils of all ages listen with interest in lessons and are never reluctant to express their views when asked. They are able to make logical deductions and think for themselves, as they use information and communication technology (ICT) such as tablets and touch screens with confidence. Pupils are consistently very successful in gaining places at their first choice of senior school, with significant numbers being awarded scholarships”.
