Glowing inspection report for village school
The report, which contained just one recommendation which is a rare achievement for any school inspection, noted that pupils' well-being and emotional development are central to the work of the school and that staff work diligently to ensure that the school is a reflective learning organisation.
It further went on to state that relationships between staff, pupils and parents are strong with staff providing pupils with exciting learning experiences and the curriculum reflecting the ambitions of the Curriculum for Wales.
Headteacher, Meinir Morris, said: “We are so proud of all the pupils and how they engaged with adults and each other during the inspection.
“They demonstrated embedded values and skills, independence and self-evaluation, confidence to talk about their learning and pride in being a valued part of our self-improving school community”
The report went onto note that the school is a “happy, caring and nurturing community where pupils feel safe, valued and take pride in the school badge”.
It also found that a strength of the school curriculum is the provision for the promotion of the cultural and linguistic nature of Wales and its heritage and the enthusiasm instilled in the pupils.
Inspectors commented on how staff have high aspirations for pupils’ use of the Welsh language and noted this is beginning to impact positively on the development of pupils’ spoken Welsh and reading skills.
Gareth Hopkins, Chair of Governors, said: “We are incredibly proud to have received this glowing assessment of our school, which serves as the beating heart of the community of Llansantffraid.
“The whole report is overwhelmingly positive and I was particularly pleased about the brilliant feedback for our wonderful staff team, and in particular our fantastic headteacher, who was rightly described as providing “strong, measured, and compassionate leadership” and building a “healthy team culture amongst all staff”.”
