Dear Parents and Carers,
As you will be aware, we had some visitors in school this week. We were informed of our Section 5 OFSTED Inspection on Monday and the inspectors arrived for the 2-day visit on Tuesday.
Whilst I can't share the outcome of the visit yet, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your kind words on the Parent Survey. Your continued support is very much appreciated. I would also like to thank the team from TEAM who came to school to support the staff here and to ensure the visit ran smoothly. I would also like to thank our Trustees and LGB members for attending meetings and supporting the school so well. We will share the final report with you as soon as we can.
Today, it is Bobbie's last day at Witheridge C of E after 25 years! I am sure you will join me in wishing Bobbie all the very best for the future. Over the next few weeks, we will have a temporary cook – some of you may remember Forest, who supported us last year, and then we will be joined by Bethany, who will be our full-time cook from February.
I hope you have a lovely weekend.
All the best,
Miss Ratcliffe
Head of School
