School Ofsted Inspection Rated ‘Good’

We are proud to report that Caldecott School welcomed its OFSTED inspection in October 2022, and we received a rating of “Good”. We are delighted that the inspection report captures the outstanding, quality work being delivered.

The students at Caldecott School are afforded many opportunities to develop within a nurturing environment that also challenges them to try new activities – some outside of their comfort zone – and we have a staff team who are committed, dedicated and professional, and a huge asset to all of Caldecott.

Some of our many strengths picked out by the OFSTED inspectors were;

• Caldecott School provides a broad and balanced curriculum which prepares pupils well for their next stage of learning.
• The teaching of reading is well-developed
• Staff work with pupils in an accomplished way, never losing sight of the end goal or learning target(s)
• Safeguarding is effective and well-managed. There are strong links with other agencies and the relationship with parents and carers is strong.
• Staff help pupils regulate behaviour well
• Pupils’ wider development is aided by a broad range of experiences and activities
• Staff hold the SLT in high regard
• There is high staff morale

We would like to thank and congratulate the school leaders and staff teams for their commitment and dedication to the pupils.
