Adderley School ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted results 2024

The recent Ofsted inspection on 11th and 12th June has given the school ‘outstanding’.

The summary of the report is below, for more information see the link to the school’s web site.

Pupils flourish at this inclusive and nurturing school. Staff have created a caring and supportive environment where everyone is respected. Relationships between staff and pupils are highly positive.

Staff are united in their ambition for every pupil to achieve their full potential. Pupils make strong progress as a result of the well-planned curriculum and high-quality, personalised teaching. Pupils remember what they have been taught in past years and talk about current learning with enthusiasm and interest.

Pupils’ behaviour and attitudes are excellent. They are respectful, well mannered and polite. Pupils enjoy their learning and are proud of their school. They know that adults listen to their concerns and help them. There is a strong sense of belonging and togetherness. This is demonstrated in the genuine care pupils show towards each other.

Pupils take part in a range of inclusive extra-curricular activities, including fencing, archery and ultimate frisbee. They are enthusiastic to take on jobs that require them to help others, such as play leaders. Parents are very positive about the school and value the school’s proactive approach in supporting every pupil to be the best that they can be.

Coffee Anyone?

Well the weather forecast isn’t brilliant for tomorrow, but the coffee and cake will be good down at the village hall so why not pop down for half an hour?  10.30 – 12.00 in the village hall. 

If you know anyone new in the village who may welcome the chance to meet a few people perhaps you could invite the to come along too?  Its nice to come with someone you know. Also if you know someone who doesn’t really use the internet, perhaps you could check if they have remembered.  We nearly forgot ourselves as the month seems to have flown.

The Fauls Singers Evening At St Peter’s

Entrance to St Peter's Church

The Fauls Singers concert at St Peter’s Church on the 18th of May turned out to be a great village event with some 50 attendees plus 30 from The Fauls Singers, a packed house.

There was a varied programme from a Beatles Medley to Puccini’s Nessun Norma to a fast hand clapping round of Hava Nagila, duets on the keyboard and a medley of Welsh Hymns.

The interval refreshments were generous platters of delicious homemade savouries accompanied by wine.  Chris Lewis gave the introduction and vote of thanks. Thank you to all who came to support and to all who helped to make the evening so enjoyable.

Cakes

Yes, last Saturday in the month is this Saturday 25th May, and that’s Coffee Morning, 10.30-12 in the village hall.

There are always lush cakes, good conversation and the chance to find out a bit about what’s going on in the village or just catch up with friends.  

If you are new to the village, or you have neighbours who are new to the village, why not bring them along to the village hall.  You can be sure of a warm welcome and the chance to meet a few lovely people.  If you know someone lives on their own and may feel a bit anxious about coming along without some moral support why not offer to pick them up?  Its hard to walk into a room on your own so if you would like to come but want someone to meet you just ring Val Nash on 07814 071 254 and she will sort something for you.  

Look forward to seeing you there.
