Ofsted and Performance Data

Ofsted have assessed the school to be good, and they have recognised a number of strengths which demonstrate how the school has continued on its improvement journey since the previous inspection in December 2018.

The letter below is provided for the school, parents and carers to share with their children. It describes Ofsted’s main findings from the inspection of their school.

We are very proud to share the outcome letter from our recent Ofsted inspection of the Junior school which took place on 4^th and 5^th March 2025, stating that standards have been maintained. As a previously ‘good’ school from the previous inspection in 2019, the report does not provide individual gradings. However, the report does capture the many aspects and examples of how our schools have developed and improved in recent times, whilst also celebrating those long-lasting features that make Eastwick Schools a special and unique place to learn, develop and thrive. The report is therefore a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, pupils, and the entire school community.
