Ofsted says Bramdean School needs to improve certain areas

A private school in Exeter is still failing to meet expected standards, after a third inspection in a year by Ofsted.

The regulator says concerns remain about the safety of pupils at Bramdean School in Heavitree, along with its leadership and the premises.

In its report, it said the school "does not meet all of the independent school standards that were checked during this inspection".

It added: "There is an attempt to strengthen the oversight of welfare, health and safety and the suitability of the premises. However, staff are not suitably skilled and experienced to fulfil their leadership roles."

Annual fees for the school, which provides education for children between the ages of 3 and 18, can be more than £11,000

The school has turned down a request by Radio Exe for a response.
