OUTSTANDING in all five areas (Ofsted, September 2024)

It gives me great pleasure to share that following our Ofsted inspection which took place in September - we are outstanding in all five categories; this is testament to our incredible community of young people, staff, parents, carers, governors and friends of Bolingbroke Academy. The full report can be read here and I have highlighted a few of the key findings below:

“Pupils, and students in the Sixth Form, are exceptionally well-supported to success at Bolingbroke Academy”

“Pupils’ behaviour and conduct is exemplary. Pupils are polite and courteous.”

“The curriculum demonstrates high ambition for all pupils and is designed to build on knowledge progressively over time.”

“Consistently high-quality teaching from staff who are experts in their subjects means pupils develop a deep understanding of the subject content.”

“The school understands the vital importance of reading.”

“The wider personal development of pupils is a considerable strength of the school. Pupils study a carefully crafted curriculum that prepares them well for life in modern Britain.”

“Parents are effusive about the school.”

You will notice that the last bullet point comments that parents are “effusive” about our school and I would like to thank the parents/carers who took the time to complete the Parent View Survey and to the group of parents who came on site to speak to the lead inspector directly.

Our recent open events demonstrated the outstanding reputation we already had in the local area and for this to now be recognised by His Majesty’s Inspectorate is fantastic.

Kind regards,

Ms C Edis
Principal
