Ofsted Report 2026

Following the inspection which took place on 21st & 22nd April. Our Report Card represents a significant achievement for our school and reflects the hard work, commitment and ambition of our staff, students and wider community.  It recognises the high quality of provision and the collective effort that has driven the sustained improvement since our previous inspection.

Our school was graded at the Strong standard in:

  • Attendance and behaviour
  • Inclusion
  • Personal development and wellbeing

and graded at the Expected standard in:

  • Achievement
  • Curriculum and teaching
  • Leadership and governance
  • Post 16 provision

Our school was graded Met in Safeguarding standards, grades are either Met or Unmet.

Inspectors highlighted the school’s very strong inclusive culture across the school, where impeccable pupil behaviour and positive attitudes are typical as a result of staff teaching the importance of behaving well, respecting others and showing kindness in a positive way.  They recognised that no matter what the barrier, leaders ensure pupils get the guidance they need to be successful and take part fully in school life.  Inspectors also described the personal development programme as a golden thread that runs through school life.

Inspectors commented that pupils typically achieve well and that leaders ensure pupils access an ambitious curriculum and continually refine the sequencing of knowledge across subjects. They also highlighted the highly effective catch-up provision for those that need it is in place.

While inspection outcomes are important, what matters most is the positive difference the school’s work has made for our community over time. This outcome is something the whole school community should feel rightly proud of. Your continued support and partnership play a vital role in the success of our school, and we are extremely grateful for the trust you place in us.

We remain ambitious and committed to continuous improvement and will continue to build on these strengths to ensure every student receives the very best education possible at Haileybury Turnford. Next week, we will be sharing the report with our students in assemblies and celebrating this achievement together, recognising the important role they have played in the success of our school.
