What Ofsted say about
both schools
The full reports can be found on the school websites:
Frithville Primary School
‘You have a created a harmonious school community
where pupils respect the staff and work well.
Pupils enjoy learning and attendance is good. They
are caring towards each other and demonstrate
compassion to others.’
‘Parents speak highly of the school. All parents
who responded to Ofsted’s online questionnaire,
Parent View, felt that their child was safe and
happy at the school and that staff respond well to
any concerns they raise. Parents who spoke to the
inspector commented on how well the school meets
the needs of their child.’
NewYork Primary School
‘You ensure that pupils benefit from a range of
experiences to enhance their learning and broaden
their horizons. For example, pupils can undertake
several residential visits during their time at New
York Primary, to areas of the country that are
divergent geographically, such as the Lake District
and the coastal town of Whitby.’
‘Pupils throughout the school respectfully
acknowledge that several of their peers have
particular needs. They embrace the inclusive culture
you have created and support each other very well.
Parents spoke highly of the support their children
get from staff to help them succeed.’
‘The leadership
team has maintained
the good quality
of education in the
school since the last
inspection.’
Ofsted
‘As we observed
lessons in both classes
and looked at pupils’
books, we saw that
teachers match work
to the abilities of
pupils well.’
Ofsted
‘School staff work well
with external agencies
to support this group of
pupils. These pupils make
strong progress from
their starting points and
are achieving.’
Ofsted
‘Leaders have taken
effective action to raise
standards. Governors visit
regularly and ensure that
the performance management
process is robust. The quality
of teaching has improved
across all subjects,
including phonics.’
