Ofsted & Inspections

How St Bernadette's is inspected, and where to read the reports.

How we are inspected

As a Catholic primary school we take part in two kinds of inspection. Ofsted inspects the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. A separate Catholic Schools Inspectorate inspection looks at our Catholic life and mission, religious education and collective worship.

We continue to be rated a “Good” school by Ofsted in our latest inspection (October 2024), and a “Good” school by the Catholic Schools Inspectorate in our latest RE inspection (March 2024). Both full reports are available below.

Paper copies of any inspection report are available free of charge from the school office. Please contact us if you would like one, or if you would like to discuss anything raised in a report.
