Guestling Bradshaw CE Primary School

"Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning. Relationships between pupils and staff are strong. Pupils are happy and feel safe. They trust adults to help them with problems. The school’s Christian ethos influences all aspects of school life. Pupils understand, and are guided by the school values of courage, friendship, truthfulness, humility, compassion and hope."     (Ofsted June 2022)  

Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills. Its role is to inspect and regulate services that care for children and young people, helping to improve standards in education and beyond.

Our most recent Ofsted inspection was a full Section 5 inspection, which took place on 29 and 30 June 2022.

We were delighted to achieve a judgement of ‘Good’ across all areas under the current Ofsted framework. This is a significant achievement and reflects the dedication, commitment and hard work of our entire school community.

At Guestling, our values of Love, Respect, Courage, Wonder, Community and Growth are at the heart of everything we do. These values shape our curriculum, guide our relationships and inspire our pupils to become confident, compassionate and curious learners. We are proud that the inspection recognised the strength of our provision, the ambition and dedication of our staff, governors and leaders, the positive attitudes of our pupils, and the invaluable support of our parents and carers.

This outcome reflects not only the quality of education we provide, but also the nurturing and inclusive culture that makes Guestling such a special place to learn and grow. We invite you to read the full report below.
