Inspection of The Duke of Bedford Primary School, Peterborough, PE6 0ST

Your school is a satisfactory school and you make satisfactory progress. By the end of Year 6 you reach standards that are above average. Some of your lessons are good, but not all of them. We noticed that you try very hard to do the best you can in lessons, and that is one reason why we think your behaviour is good.

We have asked the school’s leaders to make sure more of you do really well in writing, by giving you more opportunities to write at length. We have asked them to give you targets that are well suited to your needs to help you improve, and to make sure marking shows you the steps you need to take to reach your targets. We would also like those people in charge of subjects to have more time to check them carefully, especially in English and mathematics.

Park Farm, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, PE2 8XA

Inspection of Heritage Park Primary School, Peterborough, PE2 8XA

We think that your school is outstanding in every way. You make extremely good progress in your learning because your headteacher, governors, and everyone who teaches you work so effectively to make sure that everything they do is of high quality. Your work covers all the subjects you should learn. Your whole school, your classrooms, corridors and outside areas are full of displays which celebrate this work and help you think. These included wonderful examples of artwork, books with photographs of your teachers in Kenya and China and many other things.

2 May 2008 Dear Students, Inspection of St John Fisher RC School, Peterborough, PE1 5JN I am writing to inform you of the outcomes of our inspection visit to your school. Firstly, I would like to thank you for the many conversations we had with a number of you who were all very honest and thoughtful about what they told us. It was good to see that so many of you value each other's cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds. One of the positive findings of the inspection was our judgment that the sixth form is good. Students in the sixth form benefit from good teaching and the opportunities on offer through Team Peterborough. Having looked carefully at how much progress you are making and how the school is meeting your needs, the inspection team judged that your school requires 'special measures'. This means that your school needs to improve if it is to ensure that all students do well and feel safe. We

My very best wishes for the future.

You are showing your good understanding of the need to have healthy lifestyles by keeping fit and safe and eating healthily.

We found that yours is a satisfactory school, and with some important good features.
