We are thrilled to share the incredible journey of the Inspire Partnership Academy Trust, where we've seen six of our nine primary schools improve from 'inadequate' or 'requires improvement' to 'good' and 'outstanding.' This success reflects our commitment to fostering collaboration, innovative curriculum design, and robust leadership that truly resonates with our communities. Our approach at IPAT has been about creating a world class curriculum where students see themselves reflected in their education. This not only boosts confidence but prepares them to meet the challenges of the world with resilience and insight. At West Thornton Primary School, our recent Ofsted inspection highlighted our success, with outstanding judgments in four out of five categories. This is a testament to our dedicated staff, our strategic approach and the collaborative spirit that drives us. We are excited to tell our story and will continue to contribute to the sector by sharing strategies and resources that have had good impact for us.

The Inspire Partnership Academy Trust is thrilled to share the fantastic achievement of West Thornton Primary School in their recent Ofsted inspection! This marks the school's first inspection since joining the Trust in April 2020 and their first since being graded inadequate in February of the same year. The judgements are a testament to the incredible dedication and hard work of the entire school community and the power of being part of a collaborative Trust. The Ofsted report, published following the inspection on 1st and 2nd October 2024, awarded West Thornton Primary School an Outstanding rating in four key areas: Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership and Management, and Early Years Provision. This is a remarkable accomplishment and reflects the school's commitment to providing a nurturing and enriching learning environment where pupils can truly thrive.

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Forest Academy Attendance Hub, a comprehensive online resource designed to support schools in improving student attendance. Developed by Forest Academy, part of the Inspire Partnership Trust, to support a network of schools facing similar challenges, the Hub offers a wealth of practical tools, insightful approaches, and valuable research to help schools develop effective attendance strategies.
