Ofsted Report
Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills) inspect and regulate schools in order to achieve excellence in the care of children and young people, and in education and skills for learners of all ages.
Our last inspection was occurred on the 18th – 19th October 2006 where our school was deemed as ‘Outstanding’. Many outstanding schools then receive an Interim Assessment to evaluate whether a full inspection is required. Gumley House was given an interim assessment in July 2010 where it was stated that we should continue to hold our current status and that further inspection will not be necessary until after September 2011. Ofsted award schools under four categories as follows:
| Key for Inspection Grades | |||
| 1 Outstanding | 2 Good | 3 Satisfactory | 4 Inadequate |
A summary of the Inspectors judgments can be found below:
| Categories for inspection | Grade awarded |
| Overall effectiveness of school | 1 in all categories |
| Achievements and standards | 1 in all categories |
| Personal development and well-being | 1 in all categories |
| The quality of provision | 1 in all categories |
| Leadership and management | 1 in all categories |
