This is an extremely successful inclusive school with a strong reputation in the area. In the most recent Ofsted in February 2024, inspectors praised the strong community ethos and relationships between staff and students based on clear expectations. Inspectors also celebrated our broad and ambitious curriculum, the prioritisation of reading and the support that is in place for all students to access the curriculum.

The school remains one of the highest performing schools in Somerset and is well-regarded by parents and the community.
