School with a set of 'Golden Rules' scores high with Ofsted inspector

A school with a set of 'Golden Rules' and a budding volcanologist among the pupils has receiving a glowing report from Ofsted.

Inspectors described St Raphael's Catholic Primary School as 'vibrant and successful' with a set of pupils possessing a 'strong sense of belonging'.

Lead inspector David Lobodzinski reported: "Pupils value their education, knowing that it will help them to pursue their future ambitions.

"They told the inspector that they aspire to a variety of careers, such as in volcanology, history, photography, teaching and design.

"Pupils behave well. They understand the school's 'Golden Rules', including to be kind and helpful and to look after each other.

"Pupils try hard to follow these rules each day, which helps the school to be a place where pupils can 'care, share and learn together'."

And the school also got a firm thumbs up from the mums and dads.

The report said: "Parents were exceedingly positive about the school. They reported that their children flourish in the school's nurturing and family-like environment.

"The overwhelming consensus was that parents could not be happier to be part of the school."
