Ripon primary school receives 'good' Ofsted rating
St Nicholas Church of England Primary School pupils
A primary school at West Tanfield, near Ripon, has received a ‘good’ Ofsted rating.
St Nicholas Church of England Primary School on Mowbray Terrace is a mixed primary school with 49 students currently enrolled.
The school has maintained its status as good since 2010.
The report said “pupils thrive at this small and inclusive school” and praised St Nicholas for its “ambitious curriculum”, “exemplary” behaviour from pupils, and “wide range of opportunities".
The report added:
“The school has a strong spirit of community. It shows genuine care for pupils and works in effective partnership with parents and carers to meet pupils’ individual needs. Pupils enjoy school. They work and play happily with each other and build trusting relationships with staff.”
Headteacher Sarah Taylor said:
'We are incredibly proud of the excellent feedback in our report and delighted that the report recognised the exemplary behaviour of our pupils and that our school is an inclusive school where children thrive.
"None of this would have been possible without the professionalism and dedication of our school staff who Ofsted recognised as providing all children with a high-quality education."
