St Andrew’s…outstanding

St Andrew’s is delighted with the outcome of its most recent inspection gaining the highest possible judgement of ‘outstanding’ in all four areas assessed by the ISI (Independent Schools Inspectorate).

The EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) inspection, carried out in May, judges the provision for children in the foundation stage (ages 2 to 5) in the following four areas: how well the school meets the needs of the children, the effectiveness of the leadership and management, the quality of provision, and the outcomes for children.

St Andrew’s was judged to be outstanding in all four of these areas. Some of the highlights in the report included: ‘…happy children make rapid progress within a safe and secure learning environment’; ‘…provision is enhanced significantly by good specialist teaching and a breadth of after school activities’.

Headmaster, Simon Severino, said ‘to receive such positive endorsement from an external agency is enormously gratifying and we are hugely appreciative of the hard work of the staff and children at St Andrew’s who have earned the school this accolade.’

The ISI arranges and carries out the inspection of any school whose head is a member of and wishes to be accredited by the Independent Schools Council (ISC) and the ISC’s affiliated associations of schools.
