We are proud that both our schools have been rated as "Good" following visits from Ofsted Inspectors.
Bidwell Brook School - Date of Inspection = June 2023
The Inspectors said "Pupils enjoy coming to this happy school. They arrive in the morning with smiles for the staff who greet them, eager to get on with the rest of the day. Pupils are proud of their school. They show interest in visitors and enthusiastically share how much they enjoy school. They have a voice and have influenced many improvements around the school."
Ellen Tinkham School - Date of Inspection = April 2023
Inspectors remarked "Ellen Tinkham School is a warm, caring community. The school’s vision that ‘everyone will be the best that they can be’ is evident in all aspects of school life. Pupils have a range of special educational needs and/or disabilities. These complex needs could become long-term barriers to learning and life. However, this is a school where there are the highest expectations for what pupils can achieve. Staff work tirelessly to break down barriers to learning. Consequently, pupils are happy, confident learners, well prepared for the next stage of their education and life in modern Britain.”
