March 2022 Inspection Report is Excellent!

We are absolutely delighted that Redcliffe Gardens School has achieved the highest possible grading in its recent inspection report from the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). Three inspectors visited the school in March 2022 and not only did the school meet all of the regulatory standards, but it was judged to be EXCELLENT for THE QUALITY OF THE PUPIL’S ACADEMIC AND OTHER ACHIEVEMENTS and for THE QUALITY OF THE PUPILS’ PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT.  Schools are rated across these two broad areas of EDUCATIONAL QUALITY as either excellent, good, sound or unsatisfactory and we are delighted that Redcliffe achieved the HIGHEST possible rating for both: EXCELLENT.

Head, Mr Ben Dunhill, congratulated the staff and students saying, ‘this is a truly excellent report and I am very grateful to all of the Redcliffe teachers and staff who continue to deliver fantastic teaching and pastoral care for our children every single day. I am particularly delighted that the inspectors found us to be “a happy, family-focused school community, where kindness and respect are paramount”;  it is these core values that make this school a very special and joyful place for us all to be part of.’
