The school charges fees of £3,500 per year.[5] All pupils are borders and they have two weekend home trips per month, and parents often visit on other weekends.[5] A "material change" was applied for c. 2017/2018 to increase the number of students to 225 and the school also planned to increase the maximum age to 25. Ofsted recommended that the request should be refused until safeguarding issues a had been addressed, and in light of the school already exceeding both its registered capacity and age range.[5]
Ofsted reports
The 2008 Ofsted report recognised the school as "Good", in 2011 it was characterised as "Satisfactory", in 2013 as "Inadequate", in 2014 and 2015 as "Requires Improvement" and in 2017 again "Inadequate". Later concerns centred on safeguarding issues, and while the interim report of 7 February 2018 indicated substantial improvement, it still fell short of National Minimum Standards in a number of safeguarding areas. Most recently, in January 2020, the school was said to have met all independent school standards.[6]
