Challenge Partner Review March 2019

Wed 27 Mar 2019

The staff and children are feeling incredibly proud of ourselves when we had visitors last week. One was a trained Ofsted inspector and the other three visitors were senior staff from other schools outside of Leicester.

The findings of their review are written in a report which we are incredibly pleased with. We feel that it is an accurate reflection of our super school.

Check out the Ofsted tab in the main menu to read the latest Challenge Partner Report.

Look under the tab 'Challenge Partner Review 2018' to find last years and this years reports.

Happy reading!
