Dear Parent
HMIe Report on
As you may know, a team of Her Majesty’s
Inspectors visited us during the week before the October holiday
break. HMIe has now
released the published report and I have issued a copy to each
family along with this letter. From reading the report you will see that the
inspection team was very impressed with many aspects of the work of
the school, but none more so than the positive attitude and
achievements of our staff and pupils. I commend this report to you and I thank you for
the support you have given to improve our school. Yours sincerely John Fitzpatrick Headteacher |
