OFSTED Inspection Wednesday, 19th April and Thursday, 20th April 2023
Outcome The school continues to be a Good School

 

This is a little bit of what the inspector had to say:

Everyone understands the school's values. These are woven throughout school life. Pupils
contribute well to school life. They take on a range of responsibilities. These include
worship leaders members of the school council and eco club members . Pupils enjoy the
many after school clubs, trips and enrichment activities available to them. These include a
range of sports, drama, music and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and
mathematics) clubs.

 A few more quotes from the report are:

Pupils enjoy coming to this happy, friendly school. They like the fun and interesting learning activities that their teachers plan for them.  

Pupils behave well in class and around the school.  

Pupils feel safe. They understand that bullying is wrong and say it is very rare. They are confident that adults will sort out any disagreements, should they occur. 

Leaders are quick to identify any pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They ensure that appropriate plans are in place to support these pupils. 

Parents shared many positive comments about the school. One who spoke for many commented that ‘Stonham Aspal is a lovely school. My children are happy and making good progress. The school is responsive when concerns are raised.’ 

Leaders and governors have ensured that there are robust systems in place to check that pupils are safe. All staff have received appropriate training. They record concerns, however minor, and leaders follow these up in a timely manner. 

Governors are skilled and knowledgeable about the school. This enables them to support school development and improvement effectively. 

 

We are very proud to be a Good School and will continue on our journey to go from strength to strength.
