Ofsted
WE ARE DELIGHTED TO SAY THAT WE CONTINUE TO BE A GOOD SCHOOL!
‘Pupils enjoy coming to Salterhebble Junior and Infant School. They try hard to follow the school values of independence, confidence, aspiration, resilience, respect and excellence. They are proud to wear the hummingbird badge which represents these values. Leaders have high aspirations for every pupil. They encourage everyone to ‘dream it, believe it, achieve it’.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Lessons buzz with excitement.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Staff in the early years are skilled at helping children to learn the phonic sounds they need to know. As a result, children get off to a flying start in reading.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Behaviour in lessons is good.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Pupils have sophisticated discussions about their learning.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Teachers use a range of resources to help pupils understand new learning and provide help when needed. This ensures that all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), learn well.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘Pupils are taught to value and appreciate diversity.’ (Ofsted 2022)
‘There are many opportunities for pupils to try new things and to follow their interests.’ (Ofsted 2022)

In November 2025, we carried out our annual parent survey. We were thrilled to read how 100% of children feel happy and safe at Salterhebble. 100% of parents would also recommend us to other families – this is the best advertising we can get!
