Outcomes & Ofsted

Ofsted visited Red Gates on the 28th Feb and 1st March 2023 to complete an ungraded inspection. As a result, Red Gates remains Good, however, the inspectors report that there was enough evidence of improved performance to suggest that the school could be judged outstanding if they were to carry out a graded (section 5) inspection now. As a result, the school’s next inspection will be a graded inspection and take place within 12-24 months.

As a community, we take great pride in the report and the true reflection it has of the fantastic progress our children make. You will note that the report has no next steps identified, this is a remarkable achievement and one that we celebrate as a school community. This obviously does not stop our drive for continued improvement as reflected in our school development plan.
