| Christmas 2012 : Our Lady’s Catholic High school Preston is rated Outstanding in all 4 of the new Ofsted criteria. Headteacher Nigel Ranson is singled out for his commitment, quiet determination and consistent approach, with the key to the school’s success being the tireless focus of all leaders on improving standards". Listening to Nigel talk about the school’s journey from Satisfactory in 2004 to Outstanding in 20012, his passion for his role becomes quickly apparent. ‘Utterly’ and ‘absolutely’ are words he frequently uses, and his rigorous methods (Ofsted) complement his unswerving resolve to ensure the best for the school. |
Who better then, than an outstanding Headteacher of an Outstanding school to inform and advise members of your Senior Leadership Team on how best to prepare for an Ofsted inspection? With the new framework, self evaluation is every bit as important as ever, but the priorities have changed, and it’s important to understand the implications of this.
