Ofsted and CSI Report

Ofsted Report - 2024

Our latest Ofsted inspection under a new and more rigorous framework rated St Gregory’s Catholic School as Good across all areas. At the heart of the report is recognition of the school's mission to ensure that ‘every child is known and loved’ and inspectors highlighted the “warm and welcoming environment” where students feel valued, supported and able to thrive. 

"The school, in its mission to ensure that ‘every pupil is known and loved’, has created a warm and welcoming environment for pupils. Teachers get to know pupils well, and they have high ambitions for their success.

Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and those who attend the St Francis de Sales Centre for the Deaf, are well supported. As a result, pupils are happy and achieve well."
