"Our teaching and support staff have gone above and beyond, as they always do, fostering an environment where every student can thrive academically and personally. "
The Hinckley School has been rated 'Good' in a recent Ofsted inspection.
A team of five inspectors visited the school on Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th September 2023 and judged all five areas: The Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership and Management and Sixth-form Provision, as ‘Good’, leading to an Overall Effectiveness rating of ‘Good’.
During the two-day visit, inspectors met with the senior leadership team, teachers, support staff, governors and students as well as conducting a parent voice survey.
Headteacher, Lisa Hickman, said, “I am delighted to share the wonderful news about our recent Ofsted inspection. This achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and unwavering commitment of our entire school community. I couldn't be prouder of our students, who have consistently demonstrated our PRIDE values and impressed our external visitors. Our teaching and support staff have gone above and beyond, as they always do, fostering an environment where every student can thrive academically and personally. This transformation isn't just about numbers and ratings; it signifies a significant positive change for our community. A ‘Good’ rating means that we are providing a quality education that equips our students with the skills and knowledge they need for a brighter future. It instils confidence in parents that their children are in the best hands and that The Hinckley School is serving its community in the best way possible. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to this achievement. We will continue to strive for the best for our students, invest in our multi-million-pound STEAM build, work with our community, and continue with our seven-year journey for our students so that they can flourish, both personally and academically
