Ofsted Reports
In September 2009 Robertsbridge Community College received its most recent Ofsted Inspection to look at the standards of teaching and learning within the College. We were delighted to have been awarded the status of 'Good with Outstanding Features'.
A letter was sent by Ofsted to every student within the College thanking them for the warm welcome they received and they time the students took to speak with them.
They went on to say the following:
- You go to a good and improving school. Your school is well led and you and your parents appreciate the work done by the teachers to care for you and help you learn. You have been doing better in your examinations and more of you are getting good grades at GCSE, including mathematics and English.
- You feel very safe in the school and know there is always someone to turn to if you need help. When you are given the opportunity, you enjoy meeting and working with students from different backgrounds. You contribute extremely well to the community through your work as prefects, mentors, members of the college council and the many events that you support in the local area.
- Your behaviour in lessons and around the school is good. Almost all of you are polite, courteous and work well together to give the college such a strong sense of community. Your attendance is also getting better.
- You enjoy your lessons and make good progress because they are usually well planned by teachers who really know their subjects. However, sometimes you don't get enough opportunites to work independently.
- The curriculum has improved a lot since the last inspection and this is helping you to do better. You particularly enjoy taking part in sporting and drama activities and your recent productions such as Oliver and Toad of Toad Hall were very successful.
The College was given some areas to look at improving, and we are doing our best to become even better. The full Ofsted report is available to download from either the link on the right, or the Ofsted website (link below) where previous reports can also be viewed.
