The School's 2004 Ofsted Inspection Report rated the school for overall effectiveness as Grade 2 (good); in 2007 again as Grade 2; and in 2010, as Grade 3 (satisfactory).[1] In 2019, it was awarded a Grade 2 (good) rating.[1]
In 2001, just before the 2001 General Election, Jonathan Dimbleby hosted a live broadcast of Any Questions? from the school.[2] In 2017, the police were called to a disturbance on the school playing field. The protest by students was in regard to a restriction on toilet breaks, which one parent described as "humiliating". The police stated it was not a criminal matter.[3][4]
