Chris Stafford, head of the Prep, and Kathryn Morrell, head of the Pre-Prep, said they were thrilled with the report.
Mr Stafford said: "Listening to the verbal feedback will always rank as one of the very high spots of my career – I had a lump in my throat the size of a coconut. I felt genuinely humbled because this report told me more about the real nature of the staff and pupils here; it is very much their triumph and their reward.
"Time and time again, it was the pupils that received the praise of the inspectors and this is the right focal point – the school is not a collection of buildings, proud as we are of all the facilities; this school does not exist for the sake of the governors or the staff – despite their huge commitment and extraordinary gifts – this school is an excellent school because it has remarkable pupils and I would like to say a huge thank you to all our parents for your trust in us, in placing them here."
