Dear Parents and Carers

As you know, QEStudio had its first ever Ofsted Inspection on 1^st and 2^nd February this year.  Many of you completed the surveys and, of course, many of your children were spoken to during these two days.  Our pupils were simply wonderful throughout the process and I’m delighted to let you know the final outcome and share the full report received yesterday.     It is on the QEStudio website here.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank parents and carers who have supported both our schools over the years.  Founding QEStudio Principal, Alison Wilkinson, with her tenacious commitment to technical, creative and vocational courses, opened QEStudio in 2017 –  back then the school didn’t even have its own building!  Since those early days, former pupils and parents,  past and present colleagues, trustees and governors have shown real commitment and dedication to this innovative School, and we are so very proud of the students and their achievements. 

That said, we continue to work on improving our provision across both schools, we are never complacent, and across our Trust there are lots of areas we are developing, including the ones mentioned in the report.  I’ll be writing to parents of pupils across both schools over the next few weeks with updates on our Development Plan and activities in and around our schools.

Thank you, as always, for your wonderful support for your child’s school.  It is much appreciated and never taken for granted.

With best wishes
