What is SIAMS?

SIAMS stands for the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools. As a GOOD school we are inspected every five years. The school is inspected on three sections:

1 - The Christian Character of the school and meeting the needs of all leaners.

2 - The impact of Collective Worship on the school community.

3 - Leadership and Management of the school as a church school.

The inspections are carried out by the Church of England, Diocesan Board of Education Inspectors.

We are very pleased with our latest report as it clearly shows how the school has developed since the last report, what a caring environment the school has and how everyone is valued at this school.
