Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools Report
As a Church of England School it is a requirement that we are inspected on at least a five yearly basis. Our last inspection was in June 2016 and rated the school provision as GOOD in all areas.
The principal objective of SIAMS inspection is to evaluate the distinctiveness and effectiveness of the school as a church school. Find out more by clicking here: siamsevaluationschedule2018_0.pdf
Towards this objective, inspectors seek answers to four key questions.
- How well does the school, through its distinctive Christian character, meet the needs of all learners?
- What is the impact of collective worship on the school community?
- How effective is the Religious Education? (VA schools and academies- as a voluntary controlled school we are not inspected in RE)
- How effective are the leadership and management of the school as a church school?
Here are the key findings from our latest SIAMS inspection report:
"The Christian ethos is well established and explicit".
"Christian values are understood, shared, and consistently lived out by the whole school community".
"Children behave well and the school’s Christian character and values have a major impact on their spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development".
"A nurturing Christian environment underpins high quality teaching and learning experiences for all pupils that contribute to their academic achievement and personal development".
