OFSTED 2024: Primet Academy, Colne - Requires Improvement



Primet Academy Secondary School in Colne has been rated as Requires Improvement by OFSTED in its latest inspection.

The inspection, which took place in November 2023, sets out a number of issues for the school to address in the report:

  • A minority of students do not show a positive attitude to learning
  • A number of students are regularly truant
  • Some staff lack the confidence to design learning that supports pupils to learn the specific knowledge in the curriculum well
  • Curriculum delivery methods are uneven and inconsistent

While the inspection took place over six months ago, the report has only just been released and it is understood the school is already taking steps to improve attendance and address the other issues highlighted here.
