Ofsted judged North Downs as ‘Good’ in July 2014. We were re-inspected in February 2018 and then most recently in June 2023. The school has retained it's good judgement, with Ofsted commenting that:

Pupils '...talk with enthusiasm about their lessons and the care they receive from staff.' 

They went on to say that :

'The behaviour of pupils around the school site is exemplary. They are taught to treat it and each other with respect.'
