Dear Parents and Carers,

Ofsted Inspection

As you may know, High Hazels Junior School received a visit from Ofsted who carried out an ungraded inspection earlier this term. Following this, we are incredibly pleased that the inspector judged that the school has maintained the standards identified at the previous inspection, during which it was rated ‘Good’.

The inspector’s report is full of praise for the school and the positive learning environment staff have created. From the quality of the academic curriculum to pupils’ behaviour and attitudes, it is clear that the inspector was impressed by the school and the experiences it is providing pupils with. As the inspector found, these are preparing pupils well for meaningful and successful lives in British society.

In particular, it is gratifying to read in the report about the caring and nurturing culture that is embedded across the school. Pupils are said to feel “happy and safe in this warm, cheerful and welcoming school”, as well as “proud to attend a school where they are cared for deeply by

staff”. The inspector also found that pupils’ behaviour is “impeccable” and that pupils show

“positive attitudes to their learning”.

Equally, we are pleased that the inspector noted that pupils are learning and achieving well at High Hazels Junior School. This is thanks to the school’s “ambitious curriculum” as well as the “high expectations” the academy has for its pupils, including for those with SEND. According to the report, running alongside the academic curriculum, pupils also have access to a wide range of extracurricular activities which allow them to develop their talents and interests, and which contribute to a well-rounded education.

We would encourage you to read the full report which is now available on the school website.

May we thank you for your support of the school and your child’s education.

Yours sincerely
