Ofsted judgement March 2025: St Gregory’s has maintained Outstanding standard!
St Gregory’s was inspected by Ofsted on 25th and 26th February 2025 and the school was judged to have maintained our Outstanding status that we achieved in our previous inspection (March 2019).
Mrs Moran, Headteacher, said “This inspection report is testament to the hard work, dedication and commitment of our community. Our teaching staff, support staff, pupils and parents work collaboratively to help every child achieve the highest outcomes and develop into the best versions of themselves. I am pleased that the inspectors were able to acknowledge that “pupils take pride in meeting the school’s high expectations.”“
Inspectors also found that:
“Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary.”
“The school provides numerous, varied opportunities to nurture, develop and stretch pupils’ talents and interests.”
“There are a wide range of A-level and applied courses for students to choose from in the sixth form. High outcomes in the sixth form enable students to be well prepared for their next steps.”
“Teachers have excellent knowledge of the subjects that they teach.”
“Behaviour across the school is excellent.”
“The school has put in place a clear and simple behaviour policy that is well-understood and implemented consistently well. The school has created an inclusive culture where pupils are taught to respect and celebrate difference.”
“Attendance is high and systems for improving this further are well established.”
“The pastoral system supports pupils to feel secure and safe in school.”
“Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, achieve exceptionally well.”
