Ofsted and Performance
Following Ofsted's inspection of Outwood Primary Academy Kirkhamgate on Tue 23 Sep 2014, we were rated as Outstanding.
This was our first inspection since becoming part of the Outwood Family and we are proud of our Outstanding rating.
"The school has undergone a cultural change since becoming an academy. Leaders’ unerring focus on pupils’ progress and consistently high standards have driven the school forward at a very rapid pace."
"Pupils win lots of praise for the way that they conduct themselves outside of school. In school, they are courteous and very well mannered and always treat others with respect. Their behaviour during assemblies is excellent and their manners in the dining hall are a credit to them."
"Disabled pupils and those with special educational needs make excellent progress. Their learning is tailored expertly to their particular needs. The additional support they have, especially with reading, ensures that they make exceptional progress in all subjects from their different starting points."
