INSPECTION The Department for Education requires that all schools are inspected approximately every four years by teams of inspectors who are registered by OFSTED (Office for Standards in Education).

In addition to this inspection, every Catholic School in the country undergoes a further inspection approximately every five years. This inspection is carried out by the Diocese under the provisions of Section 48 of the Education Act 2005.

Our last RE inspection took place in February 2020, and we were graded ‘Outstanding’ in all areas. These include Catholic Life of the School, Collective Worship and Prayer, and Religious Education.

Each of the three headings are then subdivided into the pupils, quality of provision and how well leaders manage, monitor and evaluate. A copy of the Inspection Report is available below or by request from the school office.
