Ofsted commended Sunderland’s St John Bosco School for its strong leadership amid the RAAC crisis, ensuring students continued learning safely.
Even with the building shut, the staff made sure every child got face-to-face education. They worked hard to keep the learning going, and Ofsted noticed their efforts in a recent report.
Emily Stevens, the lead inspector, visited during the autumn term. She mentioned the significant disruption caused by the unsafe building. But thanks to the staff’s steadfast leadership, students kept learning.
The school maintained its community spirit and high expectations, which is no small feat. The staff were consistent and dedicated throughout the challenges.
Headteacher Lianne Peart expressed pride in their achievements. She credited the hard work of the staff, the support from parents, and the wonderful children for their success. It’s a real team effort!
