Alston Lane Catholic Primary School, Longridge
Primary school in Preston, Lancashire. School remains Good (Oct 2022).
Latest inspection: ungraded
Inspected 19 October 2022, report published 5 December 2022.
This inspection was given to Alston Lane Catholic Primary School, Longridge (its Ofsted page), the school this one replaced when it became an academy. Alston Lane Catholic Primary School, Longridge hasn’t been inspected under its own name yet, so Ofsted’s page for it shows no grade.
School remains Good
An ungraded inspection is a shorter visit to check that a school is still at the grade it was given at its last full inspection. It doesn’t award a new grade. The full inspection it refers to was before September 2019, so it isn’t in Ofsted’s current data. More about ungraded inspections.
Next inspection: around October 2026
The last inspection was in October 2022. Schools are usually inspected about every four years. It’s now later than the usual gap, so an inspection could happen at any time.
An estimate, not an Ofsted date. Ofsted doesn’t publish its schedule and gives schools about a day’s notice. The law says the next inspection must be by August 2028 at the latest, and Ofsted can visit sooner if it has concerns.
