Kingmoor Infant School in Carlisle praised by Ofsted

Staff, pupils, parents and governors at Kingmoor Infant School in Carlisle are celebrating today after being included in Ofsted Inspectors annual successful schools list. 

Schools listed have either received outstanding inspection reports or improved significantly enough to be removed from special measures and no longer considered to be failing schools. 

County Councillor Joan Stocker, Cabinet Spokesperson for Education says, 

"I am delighted that Ofsted has acknowledged the high level of achievement within Kingmoor Infant School. The hard work and dedication of everyone in the school has resulted in its inclusion in the report. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the staff, governors and of course the pupils who have contributed to the school's success." 

Sharon McGaffin Headteacher says, 

"We are thrilled that the hard work and commitment by everyone who is connected with the school, staff, children, governors and parents has been recognised in such an illustrious way. Our inclusion in this report came as a great surprise to us. We had an excellent Ofsted report and the Inspector did write in his covering letter that it was a great privilege to inspect a school with so many strengths."
