We are outstanding – Ofsted
Dear Parents,
Pleased find attached the school’s new OFSTED report. I hope you will agree with me that it makes a rather good read for anybody connected with Swinemoor!
I am incredibly proud that the children’s hard work, fearlessness and pride in their achievements and community has been recognised. There are some quotes that I would particularly like to share with you:
“Pupils are polite, considerate and respectful. They have excellent attitudes to learning and the self-discipline to manage their behaviour well. Pupils are self-motivated and focused. Pupils are a real credit to themselves, their parents and their school.
Pupils are well-mannered and welcoming to visitors. They are a pleasure to be with.”
I believe the children have worked for it and earned it. You know they are outstanding. We know they are outstanding. Now the Government and Her Majesty’s Inspectors know it too! This is theirs to cherish and look back on and remember that together they made their school one of the best in the country. If they can do that, what else can they go on to achieve?
Many thanks as always
Mr. L. Myers
