We are so proud to announce that after an inspection at the start of October, Red Bus Flax Bourton have gained an Outstanding rating from Ofsted in every category!

VIEW OUR FULL REPORT HERE

The inspector took a learning walk, asking about our curriculum and what we want children to learn. They observed the quality of education being provided, assessed the impact that this has on children's learning, and carried out a joint observation on a group activity. 

The inspector spoke with the leadership team, the staff, our parents and our children to get feedback! 

"There is a strong focus on sustainability and healthy living. Staff help children to learn about recycling and engage parents in activities, such as toy swap shops. Children learn how to value and care for the environment"

We would also like to thank the number of families who wrote in words of support or spoke to the inspector on the day, reading your kind words truly confirmed that feeling of working in partnership. 

We decided to celebrate our grading in a way that truly represents Flax Bourton - child led, creative, outdoorsy and filled with nature!
