OUTSTANDING
but always striving for exceptional!

We are so very proud to announce that in January 2020 the school was awarded the outstanding judgement in all areas of the Ofsted framework. 

'The vision for what pupils can achieve at Polegate is limitless. There is an infectious appetite of high expectations, complemented by the care and consideration shown by the whole school community. This ensures that the experience for every pupil is the very best it can be.’

'Each and every moment of the day reflects the leaders’ ambition for irresistible learning.'

'The headteacher and governors provide an exceptional education.’

January 2020 Ofsted

We don’t do anything for Ofsted. I have always been absolutely determined that we do the best for your children in school; decisions we make are based on this.  We are aiming for exceptional and are always striving to be better and improve.  Nothing will change that – we are never complacent.

Our priority as a school has always been on developing a love and passion for reading. Reading is vital to success in all other areas of education.

This has had and continues to have a very high profile across the school. We are already seeing the impact of the changes and strategies that we have introduced. The children are making excellent progress across the school in reading. A large part of the success of our measures has been the partnership with parents. The whole school community has been developing a love of reading together.
Our ambition is to provide an exceptional education for all children in our school. We have had our best results ever and this is testament to the hard work of the whole school. The success of our school is a real team effort, everyone plays an important part. We have dedicated staff that go above and beyond, wonderful children and a supportive parent body.
