Ofsted

We had our last Ofsted inspection in January 2025. The inspection was an ‘ungraded inspection’ which means graded judgements are not given. The outcome is clear we have taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. You can read the report in full below but here are a few highlights:

• “Putting pupils’ best interests first lies at the heart of decision making at Clifford Bridge Academy.”
• “Pupils show excellent attitudes to learning and their behaviour is exemplary.”
• “The school makes sure pupils know they are valued”.
• “Pupils have a strong sense of belonging.”
• “The school makes every effort to get to know each pupil so that it can support them in a way that helps them most.”
• “Pupils say they can always find something to get involved with.”
• “An environment where pupils can flourish.”
