St Mary's CofE Primary School
Primary school in Bideford, Devon. School remains Good (Mar 2023).
Latest inspection: ungraded
Inspected 29 March 2023, report published 23 May 2023.
This inspection was given to St Mary's Church of England Primary School (its Ofsted page), the school this one replaced when it became an academy. St Mary's CofE Primary School 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 March 2027
The last inspection was in March 2023. Schools are usually inspected about every four years. That’s within the next six months.
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.
