Ofsted Report
Please see the comment below following our latest BPSI review:
St Joseph’s has improved significantly since our last inspection. Unfortunately, inspections have been postponed due to Covid – but the school had an inspection carried out by the local authority in January 2020 and they confirmed the improvements that had taken place…
The senior leadership team were cohesive, strong and ambitious focusing on the needs of the school and its pupils. They know the school and children well and recognise the areas for development. This is supported by a strong team ethos, from the relatively new teaching team.
There is a strong focus on teaching and learning. Behaviour is excellent and reflected in all aspects of the school.
The team agreed that this is an effective school with an upward trajectory. There is clear evidence of consistent approaches being applied in a systematic way providing clarity for all staff. A child during pupil discussions stated, “School has really improved for us.”
Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. They report directly to Parliament and are independent and impartial. They inspect and regulate services which care for children and young people, and those providing education and skills for learners of all ages.
Every week, Ofsted carry out hundreds of inspections and regulatory visits throughout England, and publish the results on their website.
The aim of all this work is to promote improvement and value for money in the services they inspect and regulate, so that children and young people, parents and carers and employers benefit.
