Excerpts from the 2009 Ofsted inspection report

Charters Ancaster provides a good quality of education both in the main school and in the Nursery.

 The school achieves its aims well, particularly with regard to creating a family atmosphere in which the pupils can enjoy their learning.

 Curricular provision is good; pupils are well motivated and make good progress overall as a result of good teaching.

 The spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils is outstanding and promotes good behaviour. Pupils enjoy, and are proud of, their school. As one boy said, ‘It’s about all the opportunities we have and how much we learn out of lessons as well as in them.’

 Parents are overwhelmingly pleased with what the school provides and there is a strong sense of family and community involvement.

 Every care is taken to provide each pupil with an opportunity to find something they can excel at.
As a result, pupils’ attendance and behaviour are good.

They are well prepared for the next phase of their education.
One prefect demonstrated a maturity of approach shown by many when she said, ‘We’re always improving; we learn by our mistakes.’
