Ofsted Report
November 2021
‘East Ward is a happy school that sits at the heart of the community it serves. Pupils enjoy coming to school.’
In November 2021, Ofsted visited East Ward to complete a Section 8 Inspection and we are proud to say that we are still a ‘good’ school.
The report (Section 8 Ofsted Inspection) is organised in the following way:
- Overall outcome/grading of the school
- From the viewpoint of a child attending school
- Strengths and areas for development/improvement
- Safeguarding procedures.
These are some of the comments taken from the report:
Children ‘work hard and behave well’ and ‘thrive in the school’s calm and nurturing environment.’
‘School leaders promote and celebrate individuality and diversity.’
‘Leaders have created an environment in which pupils are able to learn and flourish.’ ‘They share high ambitions and expectations for each and every pupil.’
During the inspection, Reading was identified as being taught very well and the Early Years was a clear strength of the school as children ‘get off to a good start’. The curriculum is ambitious for all pupils, including those with SEND.
