Ofsted and Performance

We were inspected by OFSTED in December 2024. Our previous inspection was in February 2019, where we were graded ‘outstanding’ across all areas. Our December inspection was to determine whether the school has taken effective action to maintain these ‘outstanding’ standards identified at the previous inspection. We are delighted that ODA is still considered ‘outstanding’ in all areas.

Our Ofsted report is available here and also on the Ofsted website here.

You can compare our school with others in the government’s performance tables here.

We take great pride in our results, particularly our Key Stage 2 (KS2) results, which rank in the top 3% of schools nationwide. Notably, 85% of our pupil premium students reach the expected standard or greater depth in reading, writing, and mathematics combined—significantly surpassing the national average of just 46% for pupil premium students.
