The staff at a Leeds primary school are celebrating after Ofsted praised them for a great turnaround. Victoria Primary Academy in Osmondthorpe spent more than a decade being given the rating 'Requires Improvement' by school inspectors.
It has now been rated 'Good' in all areas. The school last received a 'Good' rating in 2006. Inspectors praised the ‘sharp focus on the quality of education at Victoria Primary Academy’ and recognised that ‘the school has gone through a period of change’ and pupils can ‘explain how this has made school better for them.’
Since becoming part of Wellspring Academy Trust, £540,000 has been invested in the school to bring the building up to standard and transform the quality of outdoor space. A total investment of £1.15m has been committed to improving the school space by 2024.
