OFSTED Inspection of The Deepings School 11 and 12 Feb 2025

I am immensely proud to lead a school where teachers, support staff and students have immersed themselves in driving school improvement to achieve the outcome of this OFSTED inspection. 

Our work doesn’t stop here. We will use the report and feedback to further strengthen and develop the Deepings School in line with our mission,  ‘Every student to thrive and feel valued’.
