Following our school inspection, in May, by Her Majesty's Inspectors of Education, the report of their findings has been published and circulated to all our parents. We are very pleased that the report highlights the many positive things that go on in our school and confirms for us the areas for continuing development and improvement.

We were particularly delighted that Mr Pike's (P4/5 teacher) ongoing development of our website and blog pages has been put forward as an area of good practice in using Information and Communications Technology to extend pupils' learning and to involve parents in their children's learning.

 

You can download a copy of the report here.
