As an independent school, Westfield is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). ISI is licensed by the Department for Education to carry out inspections of independent schools on behalf of Ofsted. The inspections report against the Independent Schools Standards and Regulations (ISSR) 2014.

In September 2025 we had a full 3-day inspection and I am delighted to confirm that Westfield, once again, impressed the independent inspectors. The range of positive comments is exceptional, for example “Leaders and staff build relationships with pupils that are rooted in respect and kindness.” Although there are many wonderful quotes throughout the report, it can be summed up in four simple words: Westfield pupils are all happy and healthy, safe and seen.

In June 2025 we had a one-day material change inspection to enable us to admit boys into the Juniors from September 2025. The key headline is that the inspectors were very impressed with all the teaching in Junior House. Our pastoral care and Early Years are highlights of a strong provision and the breadth of extra-curricular provision is a strength. Material Change Inspection Report 2025

In January 2023 we had a short compliance inspection which is a regulatory check to confirm that a school is meeting the required standards. Our report confirmed that we are meeting the regulations. To read the full report, please follow this link – Inspection report 2023
