The Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills is responsible for inspecting schools and other educational facilities in England.
All schools are inspected on a number of factors including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, leadership, development and more.
At the end of an inspection, each school is given a rating of either outstanding, good, requires improvement, and inadeqate – outstanding being the best rating a school can receive.

![Inspection carried out in March found Morton Primary School 'inadequate'. The report concluded that quality of education, personal development and early years provision require improvement, while behaviour and attitudes are 'good'. Leadership and management has been graded inadequate. The quality of education has declined since the previous inspection when the school was graded 'good'. It is not always clear what pupils should be learning and when in the different subjects. In science and art, improvements are already underway.](https://www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOmU4ZTkxZDhmLTI5MmItNDhmNS1hZDExLTIwYzM2NGMyMGYyNDpkMDMxODI4Zi0wNTE3LTQ5NGMtOGM0YS00MmYyNDI3ZmEyZDQ=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)
