## Care Inspectorate and official records

Its latest Care Inspectorate grades (from reports published up to February 2026) are: care, play and learning Very good (5), setting Good (4) and leadership Good (4). The Care Inspectorate gives no overall grade.

The Care Inspectorate gives each area its own grade: 6 Excellent, 5 Very good, 4 Good, 3 Adequate, 2 Weak, 1 Unsatisfactory. There is no overall grade, and we never make one up. A key question keeps its grade until an inspection grades it again, so the grades can come from different inspections.
