Ofsted is responsible for educational standards across the UK and ensuring compliance with national standards. Dozens of primary schools across the city have been inspected since the turn of the year and more and more secondary schools continue to join the list.
So far in 2023 a handful of schools have joined the exclusive Outstanding list. Blenheim primary was praised for its continued “strive for excellence” and Boston Spa Academy was hailed for “nurturing pupils’ talents, ambitions and thirst for knowledge.”
