Thank you to parents who have asked us about our very recent Ofsted Inspection (July 7th and 8th). It went very well and the Inspection Team were able to correlate their judgements with the school's own assessment (School Self Evaluation Form), using Ofsted Guidance and Criteria (published to the public). Unfortunately, as the inspection took place so close to the end of the academic year, Ofsted will not be able to publish the report until September (they require three working weeks to do so). Our staff have been able to see the grading judgements but, like parents and governors, will not have access to the full written report until it is published: despite our pleas for a prompter publication - this was rejected. I am sorry that you will have such a long wait to read the report, as it is an acknowledgement of the very hard work that everyone at Arnold Middle Schooll has put in to making us a highly successful school. We will let you know as soon as we can when the report will be available so that we can all celebrate together.
