Chapmanslade Primary School has been ranked as Good by Ofsted, with an amazing 100% of parents saying they would recommend the school to friends.

Chapmanslade CE VA Primary School in Westbury retained the rating across all areas.

During the inspection, the team of inspectors noted that "pupils and staff are proud of their school" and "parents are overwhelmingly positive."

The school, which turned 150 years old this year, was visited before the Easter holidays. The school's then Deputy Headteacher, Robert Cottrell, lead the school through the inspection while 'acting up' following the retirement of the previous head, and was successful in securing the permanent headship in the following days.

Mr Cottrell said: "I am extremely proud of our pupils, who showed how wonderful our beautiful school is. It is fantastic that the hard work of our team here at Chapmanslade School has been recognised officially."

The school currently has vacancies for pupils in all year groups for next academic year. Please contact the school office on 01373 832367 to enquire or arrange a tour.
