• Ofsted Monitoring Visit

  Thu 25 Mar 2021

  We are proud to share Ofsted’s findings from our remote monitoring inspection - please visit the Ofsted page of our website for further details.

   

  “Leaders have been thoughtful and reflective about how they can adapt the curriculum effectively for remote education. Teachers have creatively adapted activities and use a wide variety of digital resources very well. They have carefully planned interesting activities, for example, virtual tours of places of interest and interviews with visitors. As a result, pupils are highly engaged in their remote learning and parents appreciate the hard work of staff” (Ofsted Monitoring Inspection, March 2021).
