Four Nottinghamshire secondary schools named among worst in country

Four Nottinghamshire secondary schools have been named amongst the worst in the country, according to Ofsted. There are around 63 primary schools currently rated as inadequate by Ofsted across England, with four of them in Nottinghamshire.

Each week Ofsted carries out hundreds of regulatory visits throughout England to ensure schools are of a high standard. Ofsted’s grading system evaluates schools on Quality of education, Behaviour and attitudes, Personal development, Leadership and management.

Kirkby College on Tennyson Street, Kirkby-in-Ashfield, was inspected by Ofsted in November 2021 and rated inadequate. The college is a mixed secondary comprehensive for children aged 11-16 and has around 425 pupils on its roll.
