INSPECTION REPORTS

All three schools within the federation were inspected by Ofsted during the Autumn Term 2016 and we are delighted to report that all were found to be good schools.  We are incredibly proud of what we offer our children across the federation and are thrilled that this has been recognised by Ofsted.
