Ofsted Inspection October 2022
This was the first routine inspection the school received since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Inspectors discussed the impact of the pandemic with leaders and have taken that into account in their evaluation of the school. Inspectors also carried out deep dives in these subjects: English, including reading; mathematics; history and citizenship. For each deep dive inspectors met with subject leaders, looked at curriculum plans, visited a sample of lessons, spoke to teachers, spoke to some pupils about their learning and looked at samples of pupils’ work.
Ofsted Inspection March 2020
In March 2020 Spring Hill High School was inspected to make sure the school met the independent school standards. The Ofsted team of inspectors met with the headteacher, deputy head teacher and the school’s special educational needs coordinator. The inspection team focused on English, mathematics, history and health and social care during the inspection. Inspectors considered the school’s curriculum plans, visited lessons and scrutinised students’work. Documentation was also reviews which included school policies, records of governing body meetings, and the school’s attendance and behaviour records.
Ofsted Inspection November 2019
In November 2019, our school again had a three day standard inspection from Ofsted and the team was pleased with the school’s quality of teaching and learning and assessment and with outcomes for pupils. These two areas were judged as good. The team also found that all Independent School Standards were met because the proprietor and leaders have complied with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Ofsted Inspection June 2018
In November 2018, our school received an emergency inspection from Her Majesty Inspector Catherine Crooks where it was recognised that the school is taking appropriate measures to address areas of the independent school standards that were not met in the June 2018 inspections. The overall outcome from that inspection is that the school met all the independent school standards that were checked on that day.
Her Majesty’s Inspection (HMI) 2017
On Thursday 2nd February the school received a surprise visit from Her Majesty’s Inspectors (HMI). The Inspection team comprised of, Peter Humphries, lead inspector and Susan Morris-King. Both inspectors were duly impressed after visiting all five school sites. The overall outcome was that, ‘The school met all of the independent school standards that were checked during the inspection’. The inspectors went on to say, “The arrangements to safeguard and promote the welfare, health and safety of pupils at the school are detailed and thorough”. This is a massive endorsement from Ofsted which underlines the tremendous work all the staff at Spring Hill High School put in, in order to keep our students safe.
