St. Clare’s was inspected by the
Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) in March 2013 and again in March 2016 to look specifically at Boarding and Welfare. ISI is an independent body appointed by the UK Department of Education to inspect independent schools in this country. I am delighted to be able to inform you that the College received an outstanding report.
