INSPECTORS FROM OFSTED RATE Modbury School OUTSTANDING
A SCHOOL at the heart of the town behind the national campaign against plastic bags has been rated outstanding.
Modbury Primary was given the rare accolade by Ofsted following a recent inspection.
It won praise in all five main inspection categories - overall effectiveness, achievement and standards, personal development and well-being, quality of provision, and leadership and management.
The inspectors said: "Pupils' personal development and well-being, including their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, are simply outstanding. They have very positive attitudes to learning and high quality work is celebrated. Pupils enjoy school and their behaviour is exemplary."
For the last two years the school has been in the top 5 per cent nationally for value added, which measures the progress children make in their learning from Years Three to Six.
Parent governor Julie Janes said: "This inspection recognises the truly outstanding qualities of our local school - a school we cherish." Headteacher Bridie Thong said: "It is a school where every child genuinely matters; feeling included, involved and enjoying school."
The school was asked to expand use of its foundation stage and pre-school children's outdoor adventure park so that more children can improve their learning through play.
