Ofsted Inspection May 2023 

We are delighted to be able to share the outcome of our latest Ofsted inspection. It is a very positive report, confirming that St John’s Church of England Primary School continues to be a ‘Good’ school. 

In the report the inspector states that ‘Pupils like attending this happy and friendly school. Staff and pupils have secure and warm relationships and they show respect for one another.’ It also says that ‘Pupils are calm and well behaved. They show a kind and caring attitude to all others and are a credit to the school.’   ‘Pupils enjoy all aspects of learning and they learn a broad range of subjects.’ The fantastic support for the school from parents is mentioned in the report and again we thank parents for all your positive feedback and for the highly valued, good relationships between home and school. Your feedback to the Ofsted questionnaire was incredibly positive. 100% of those of you who completed the survey said that you would recommend our school to another parent – that says everything – thank you! 

As always, there are some areas which can be improved, these are already part of our new School Improvement Plan 2023/2024. As staff and governors, we are committed to making these planned initiatives have impact and create a learning environment of excellence for all pupils. We look forward to sharing with you the progress that we make with these.
