The Derbyshire schools visited by Ofsted inspectors since the start of 2022 and their ratings

Ofsted is responsible for inspecting a range of educational institutions including state schools and some independent schools.

Inspections are carried out by one or more inspectors, with each visit following a specific framework devised for that particular setting such as the framework for inspection of maintained schools in England, or the common inspection framework for further education and skills.

During school inspectors, they are required to report on aspects including the achievement of pupils at the school, the quality of teaching in the school, and the quality of leadership.

Each school will then be given a judgement on the respective areas – outstanding, good, requires improvement, or inadequate.

More than a dozen schools across Derbyshire have been visited by inspectors so far this year, according to the Ofsted website, with many celebrating a retained ‘good’ rating.

Below is a list of those which are relevant Derbyshire Times’ readers, including the date the visit took place and their most recent rating.
