Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. They report directly to Parliament and are independent and impartial. They inspect and regulate services which care for children and young people, and those providing education and skills for learners of all ages.

Benfield Primary School received its last Ofsted inspection in November 2019, before we joined Compass Eko Trust, where we maintained our Good rating. The latest Ofsted report for Benfield Primary can be found at the bottom of this page.

Parent View

We welcome feedback regarding all aspects of the school. Please feel free to arrange a visit with your child’s teacher or any other member of staff, and/or to leave your views on the Ofsted Parent View website.

This website gives you the opportunity to tell Ofsted your thoughts on the school. Parent View asks for your opinion on 12 aspects, from the quality of teaching, to dealing with bullying and poor behaviour. Ofsted will use the information you provide when making decisions about which schools to inspect, and when. By sharing your views, you will be helping the school to improve. You will also be able to see what other parents have said about Benfield Primary School.
