Ofsted
The Rodillian Academy was inspected in January 2016 and was judged overall as a Good school with Outstanding categories in:
- Effectiveness of leadership and management, and
- Personal development, behaviour and welfare
Ofsted visited again in October 2019 and reported that we continue to be a Good school.
Our most recent inspection took place in February 2025, which confirmed that we have taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. Highlights from the report include:
"Pupils are polite and friendly. They form positive, trusting relationships with their peers and with staff. There is a true spirit of community at the school. The school values all pupils and works in their best interests."
"The school has high expectations of what pupils can achieve, both at school and in their future careers."
"The curriculum is well-sequenced so that pupils can build their knowledge in a logical and coherent way."
"The school also meets the needs of those pupils who start school at an early stage of reading. It checks how well pupils read and provides extra help in phonics and reading comprehension. This helps pupils to catch up with their peers and become confident and fluent readers."
"From Year 7 to the sixth form, pupils experience a broad and age-appropriate personal development programme."
