Students studied the Swaminarayan scriptures and were encouraged to participate in daily prayers as well as Hindu and other religious festivals like Christmas.

The official report said, "The Swaminarayan School enables pupils to obtain excellent standards in their work and to develop outstanding qualities as young people.

Both at GCSE and in the sixth form, pupils benefit from first class curricular arrangements, and from a wide-ranging programme of activities."
