Introduction to Our ISI Inspection Report 

At Carleton House Preparatory School, we are dedicated to providing the highest standards of education and care for our pupils. To ensure we consistently meet these standards, we undergo regular inspections by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI), a DFE appointed body that monitors independent schools to ensure they comply with regulations and offer a safe, enriching learning environment. 

Our most recent ISI inspection took place in June 2022, during which we were graded Excellent in all areas, the highest grade possible. This comprehensive inspection reviewed key aspects of our school, including the quality of education, safeguarding practices, welfare, and leadership. The inspectors gathered feedback from pupils, staff, and parents, ensuring a thorough evaluation of our practices. 

We are delighted to share that Carleton House Preparatory School was awarded the highest possible grading of Excellent in all areas following our most recent Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) inspection in June 2022.  

This outstanding achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality of education, pastoral care, and personal development for all our pupils. The report highlights our exceptional teaching, nurturing environment, and the all-round success of our children.
