Casterton College, in Rutland, maintains 'good' rating but Ofsted to bring forward next inspection

Casterton College principal Carl Smith says staff are aiming for an outstanding Ofsted rating despite concerns being raised at the latest inspection.

The college was rated ‘good’ following an inspection in late March, with the report highlighting many positives of teaching and curriculum, but Ofsted raised concerns over communication with parents and provision for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (Send).

Despite retaining its good rating from 2016, the college will now receive a full inspection within two years, rather than the standard four years for ‘good’ schools.
