Since then: ungraded inspection

Inspected 22 January 2025, report published 2 March 2025.

This inspection was given to Oak Cottage Primary School (its Ofsted page), the school this one replaced when it became an academy. Oak Cottage Primary School hasn’t been inspected under its own name yet, so Ofsted’s page for it shows no grade.

Standards maintained

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. More about ungraded inspections.

Next inspection: around January 2029

The last inspection was in January 2025. Schools are usually inspected about every four years.

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 2030 at the latest, and Ofsted can visit sooner if it has concerns.
