A primary school where pupils have ‘borne the brunt of a serious decline in the quality of education’ has been deemed ‘inadequate’ by inspectors. This follows a visit by an Ofsted team to Kerem Shloime in Broughton in January. At its prior inspection the school was said to be ‘good’.
“[The pupils’] academic development has suffered considerably,” the report said. “They deserve better.” It said expectations for pupils’ achievement were low. “In most subjects, the work that they receive does not help them to build up the knowledge that they need,” it continued.
“In some subjects, they have hardly any lessons at all. This means that pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), do not achieve well.”
