OFSTED
Why does Ofsted
Inspect Schools?
Ofsted inspects schools to provide information to parents, to promote improvement and to hold schools to account for the public money they receive. School inspections are required by law. Ofsted provides an independent assessment of the quality and standards of education in schools, and checks whether pupils are achieving as much as they can.
Key findings from Ofsted
We live by our College motto “Sucess for all” and constantly strive for improvement so that we have the maximum positive impact on the lives of all our students.
