We are delighted and immensely proud that our recent Ofsted inspection recognised the strength of our school especially in the areas of attendance, behaviour and inclusion which we achieved the Strong standard for. This reflects our commitment to creating a welcoming, nurturing and inclusive environment where every child feels safe, valued and ready to learn. We have high expectations for all pupils, promote positive behaviour and work closely with families to support regular attendance and ensure that every child has the opportunity to thrive. We are incredibly proud of our whole school community and the part everyone plays in making our school such a positive place to learn and grow.
"Pupils love coming to school. They want to attend and enjoy being part of this diverse and caring community.... There is a harmonious atmosphere across the school."
-OFSTED 2026
All Church of England dioceses and the Methodist Church use the Church of England Education Office's framework for the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) under Section 48 of the Education Act 2005. The SIAMS Evaluation Schedule sets out the expectations for the conduct of the Statutory Inspection of Anglican, Methodist and ecumenical Schools under Section 48 of the Education Act 2005. St John's was visited by the SIAMS inspection team during March of 2019 and the report can be found below. You will read a very successful report, of which we are very proud knowing that it is indicative of our rapid school improvement and development. Once again, our children were wonderful representatives of the inclusive and aspirational nature of our setting.
