Inspections

[Pupils] acquire new skills and knowledge within a highly positive working environment, which is characterised by productive relationships between pupils and their teachers. The range of subjects taught ensures pupils have many opportunities to gain knowledge and develop skills. Almost all leavers progress to a place at their preferred choice of senior school. (ISI Report, March 2024)

Heathcote School is regularly inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). The ISI is an independent inspectorate, appointed by the Department for Education, to inspect independent schools in England.

Our most recent inspection took place in November 2023 under the new ISI Framework for inspections, which was introduced that year.

Unlike the earlier system, the new Framework does not award schools overall attainment scores such as “Good” or “Excellent” – but assesses whether a school meets the required standards across five key areas. We are delighted to say that Heathcote passed with flying colours in all these areas.
