Exeter College has become the first college to retain its ‘outstanding’ grade since Ofsted’s enhanced inspections were introduced.
The college, which teaches almost 10,000 students, received the watchdog’s top grade for the second time in 10 years in a glowing report published today.
‘Outstanding’ schools and colleges began to be inspected again from September 2021 for the first time since 2010, after an exemption was removed by chief inspector Amanda Spielman.
