Ofsted Inspection
The College was awarded the highest rating for the quality of its boarding after an Ofsted inspection in November 2009, something that fewer than 10% of boarding schools achieve in the UK. Similarly, the full inspection of teaching and boarding in 2013 rated the teaching and learning and the pastoral care at St Clare's as being excellent. The 2016 inspection was a compliance inspection and the college was found to comply with all national minimum standards for boarding schools.
Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI)
Three rigorous Inspection Visits and 3 outstanding Inspection Reports confirm that St. Clare’s is truly a ‘centre of excellence’ for all of our adult courses.
Every part of the college (academic, pastoral and legal) has been carefully monitored by the independent inspection regimes below:
The British Council Inspection: with the focus on teaching and course design for English Language classes. Read the Report here.
The British Accreditation Council: with the focus on teaching and course design for Academic Subject classes. Read the Report here.
The Independent Schools Inspectorate (Private Further Education): with the focus on teaching and course design for both English Language and Academic Subject classes. Read the Full Report here
We are so pleased with the results that we want you to read the reports, in full, for yourselves! Just follow the links above.
