Ashbridge Independent School

ISI Report

As an independent school, we are inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) in line with the Department for Education’s Independent School Standards.

ISI Report

The educational quality inspection focuses on pupil’s achievement and personal development, including lesson observations and work scrutiny. The full compliance inspection checks that the school is meeting all the Independent School Standards, including quality of education, pupil’s well-being and development, safeguarding and health and safety, amongst other things.

Our most recent quality inspection was in June 2025 where we were judged to be meeting the standards in all the key areas. The inspectors were deeply impressed with our innovative curriculum and how well the outdoor and indoor learning was blended, having a positive impact on the children’s academic successes and their wellbeing.

Please find the full report below.

“The curriculum is thoughtfully planned to cater for pupils’ prior attainment and learning needs. Lessons in outdoor learning and horticultural studies add depth to pupils’ knowledge and skills base. Teachers draw up well-structured schemes of work so that pupils make purposeful connections to their wider subject learning. They provide stimulating activities which help pupils to develop their skills, often including a practical focus and access to the outdoor learning environment. Teachers’ high expectations motivate pupils and challenge their thinking. Pupils achieve well as a result. They are enthusiastic and diligent learners who express their ideas clearly and confidently.”
