Orleans Park School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 November 2023

Pupils thrive at this school. They are happy, safe and achieve very well. Staff and pupils uphold the school values of 'responsibility', 'resilience' and 'respect'. By the end of Year 11, pupils are very well prepared for the next steps in their education, whether it be in the school's popular sixth form or elsewhere. Pupils build very respectful, working relationships with each other and with staff. Pupils learn to be responsible and reflect on their own actions. This results in very positive behaviour and exemplary attitudes to learning. Pupils benefit from a broad and rich curriculum which is enhanced through the study of additional subjects such as astronomy and vocational courses in Years 9, 10 and 11. Pupils are focused and eager to learn. They appreciate the many sporting opportunities and other activities such as debating and chess. There is also the opportunity for all younger pupils to take part in new experiences such as creative days and camping or adventure trips. Pupils take great pride in their school. Pupils trust staff to always have their best interests at heart. Should bullying occur, it is taken seriously and dealt with quickly. Parents and carers who responded to the Ofsted survey were very positive about their child's education.
