Special school in Southport, Sefton. Standards maintained (Feb 2025).
Latest inspection: ungraded
Inspected 26 February 2025, report published 24 March 2025.
This inspection was given to Merefield School (its Ofsted page), the school this one replaced when it became an academy. Merefield 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. 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 February 2029
The last inspection was in February 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.
