Education Scotland ended its oversight of Slamannan Primary after consistent improvement
A Falkirk primary school has seen such good progress that Education Scotland will not make any more follow up visits.
Follow-up inspections were put on hold by the coronavirus pandemic but when the inspectors finally returned in November 2021 they found very positive changes.Members of Falkirk Council's Scrutiny Committee heard on Thursday that since then, the council's team of Children's Services advisers continued to work closely with the school's staff with progress being reported to Education Scotland.
In a letter, parents at the school were told: “After reviewing the evidence, we are now confident Slamannan Primary School has the capacity to continue to improve and we will publish no further reports in relation to the April 2018 Education Scotland inspection report.Acting head of education, Rhona Jay, commended the headteacher and staff for their professionalism and resilience during such an extended period of scrutiny and their commitment to bringing about improvements.
