OfSTED Return!

Last week OfSTED decided to visit LBTS. In January 2008 OfSTED three inspectors spent 2 days looking at all aspects of the school and decided that the school was 'good with outstanding features'. The full report is at www.ofsted.gov.uk

This time OfSTED sent one inspector for 2 days to look at how we teach ICT and how we use it lessons. The inspector graded all aspects as 'good'. The inspector was particularly impressed by how ICT is used in Music and French to help students improve their grades. She was also very complimentary about the Animation and Maths lessons she observed. The full report will be published at www.ofsted.gov.uk on 10 October 2008.
