A PRIMARY school that parents hold “in high esteem” has been judged "good" after a recent visit from Ofsted.

The positive report into Glusburn Primary School on Colne Road, Glusburn, was released yesterday, and finds the school good in all five categories. Inspectors visited the school for two days last month.

The report says: “Parents are highly supportive of the school andThey hold the school in high esteem. A lively and exciting range of activities enthuses pupils and supports their enjoyment of learning. Pupils are polite, well-mannered and behave sensibly in lessons and around school.”

There is also praise in the report for the school’s early years’ provision. It says: “The school’s work in the early years ensures that children are introduced to learning in a happy and friendly environment and so they make good progress in all areas of learning.”

It is the same rating the school, which has 334 pupils, was given at its last inspection in 2012.
