Quick Glance: Transformation of Hull Primary School to 'Outstanding'
  • A primary school in west Hull is celebrating its latest 'outstanding' rating from regulator Ofsted, recognizing the teamwork that has gone into transforming its status.

  • A little over two years ago, Collingwood Primary School found itself in the 'requires improvement' doldrums but has since reversed its fortunes, with all areas rated 'outstanding' except for early years provision, which was 'good'.

  • Staff work closely with parents and carers to remove all barriers to learning and build relationships within the community, resulting in highly achieving students with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
