All Church of England dioceses use the National Society's framework for the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) under Section 48 of the Education Act 2005. SIAS focuses on the effect that the Christian ethos of the church school has on the children that attend it. The principle objective of a SIAS inspection is to evaluate the distinctiveness and effectiveness of the school as a church school.
Our last Section 48 inspection was on 7 October 2015.
