Ofsted Inspection - November 2019

As we were previously recognised by Ofsted as being a ‘good’ school, Ofsted carried out a one day short inspection in June 2018 The purpose of a short inspection was to determine whether the school continues to provide a good standard of education and whether safeguarding is effective. There are 4 possible outcomes:

• Outcome 1 – the school continues to be a good school.
• Outcome 2 – the school remains good and there is sufficient evidence of improved performance to suggest that the school may be judged outstanding if it received a Section 5 two day inspection now.
• Outcome 3 – the lead inspector is not satisfied that the school would receive at least its current grade if a section 5 inspection were carried out now.
• Outcome 4 – the lead inspector has gathered evidence that suggests the school may be inadequate in one or more of the graded judgements under section 5 inspections.

The result of the November 2019  inspection was ‘Outcome 1’.
