Students and staff at Stamford Welland Academy are celebrating a second consecutive Good Ofsted rating, following an inspection in September.
The academy has been rated Good in all four key areas. These areas are ‘the quality of education’, ‘behaviour and attitudes’, ‘personal development’, and ‘leadership and management’. This means that the academy retains its Good rating – a judgement that the school has now consistently held since 2017.
Inspectors concluded in their report that: ‘Leaders have done much to improve the school, including the quality of education. They have set high standards of pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to learning. They have strengthened relationships with the local community. These improvements have led to more parents wanting to send their children here.’
Vicky Lloyd, Headteacher of Stamford Welland Academy, said: “We are thrilled with the results from our most recent Ofsted inspection. The findings highlight our dedication to ensuring every child in our care is a successful learner, confident individual, and responsible and employable citizen.
“To have made such strong progress, particularly against the backdrop of Covid-19 over the last 18 months and against the new OFSTED framework, is testament to each and every one of our parents, staff, and students in the academy who have worked incredibly hard.
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank and congratulate everyone for their support and commitment to making the school the very best it can be. It really has been a great start to the year and we can’t wait to build on our success further.”
