HMIe Inspection of Balgownie School: Response to Follow Through Report

Details

Balgownie School was inspected by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education (HMIE) as part of a national sample of primary education and the resulting report was published in October 2004. Working with the authority, the school prepared an action plan indicating how they would address the main points for action indicated in the report. A follow through inspection was carried out by HMIE and a further report was published in November 2006.

As a result of the good overall progress made by the school and the education authority in addressing the main points for action, HMIE made no further visits to the school in connection with the report of November 2006. However, the education authority is required to provide parents with a further report on the progress made by the school in improving reporting on their children’s progress and in raising attainment in reading, writing and mathematics, within a year of the publication of this report.

Since the initial and follow through inspections, Balgownie School had amalgamated with Upper Westfield School to form Braehead School. This progress report is based upon progress in academic session 2006/07 and refers only to pupils attending Balgownie School.
