You can read a profile of Hamilton Primary School on ParentsCentre, the official Department for Education and Skills (DfES) website for parents and carers. The information contains a profile and a link to Ofsted’s latest report and information on the school.
Replacing the Governors’ Annual Report, the School Profile is a new way for schools to report annually to parents. All schools use the same simple format, designed to provide information “about the school’s performance and its broader achievements, both in and beyond the classroom”.
DfES say that the School Profile is intended “to give parents the information they need to understand the school’s performance, strengths and areas for improvement”.
In the profile you will find details of:
- the school’s successes
- details of extra-curricular activities
- health and safety information
- the school’s response to the latest Ofsted report
Although recently published the information is always a year or so behind, with Hamilton’s covering the academic year 2005/06.
