Kington St Michael CE Primary School is Outstanding, says OFSTED
Ofsted has recently carried out a two day inspection at Kington St Michael Primary School, near Chippenham, and judged that the school is Outstanding in all five areas of inspection. A new inspection framework was introduced in September this year and Kington St Michael is proud to be in the top 10% of Primaries achieving the new Outstanding judgement.
The five areas judged to be Outstanding by Lead Inspector Marion Hobbs were Leadership and Management, Behaviour and Safety of pupils, Quality of Teaching, Achievement of Pupils and Early Years provision.

The Ofsted reports states that “all pupils are highly motivated, have a love of learning and make rapid progress in their learning across different subjects. Relationships throughout the school are highly supportive and caring and each pupil is known individually”. |
Chair of Governors, Rachael Jenkins, said: “The Outstanding judgment reflects the whole school philosophy of “only my best is good enough”, and is a great reward for the hard work of the pupils, staff and governors of KSM school.”
Head Teacher, Tracy Cornelius, said: “We are very proud of all we do at our school and have worked hard to make further improvements since our last inspection. It is very rewarding for the staff, governors, children and parents to have this work acknowledged in such a positive report”.
~ Kington St Michael CE Primary School has been recognised as an OUTSTANDING school, following a recent Ofsted inspection earlier this month.
We scored outstanding in ALL categories, a remarkable achievement considering that the Ofsted Framework was updated in September 2014 and it has become even more challenging for schools to achieve a high grading.
