# Ofsted Inspection Reports

### **Mount Carmel R.C. High School
Ofsted Inspection report November 2025**

**We are delighted by the positive report and the judgements received which recognise the hard work and dedication of both pupils and staff.**

The school was judged to be at the ‘Expected Standard’ in Achievement, Curriculum and Teaching and Behaviour and Attendance and at the ‘Strong Standard’ in ‘Personal Development’ and ‘Inclusion’ confirming that the school has many strengths and much to be proud of.

We are particularly proud that the school’s inclusive ethos shone through to inspectors who acknowledged that ‘It is rooted in the sense of belonging that permeates the school.’

As a school we look forward to working on the areas for improvement identified by inspectors so that we can continue to go from strength to strength.

Ms Farrelly, Headteacher
