School Description

Tor View School is part of Priory Education Services. Since the school’s pre-registration inspection in September 2018, leaders have opted to change its status with the Department for Education (DfE). The school no longer provides residential care for pupils. The school officially opened in January 2019. The school currently has two pupils on roll but has spaces for up to 30 pupils. Both pupils have an education, health and care plan. Day to day, the leadership team consists of the headteacher and several senior teachers. An operations manager oversees the work of the headteacher, and the operations director supports her. Inspection report: Tor View School, 30 April–2 May 2019 Page 8 of 10 Information about this inspection The lead inspector considered two responses to Ofsted’s online survey, Parent View. He also considered 17 responses to the staff survey. The lead inspector considered evidence of pupils’ progress. This included evidence in pupils’ workbooks and the school’s assessment information. The lead inspector also considered how well pupils were achieving against the targets in their education, health and care plans. The lead inspector observed several sessions over the course of the inspection, including an off-site visit. A member of staff accompanied the lead inspector on all these occasions. The lead inspector met several representatives from the proprietor group, Priory Education Group. He also met with senior teachers from the school to share progress about pupils and the leadership team. In addition, the lead inspector made phone calls to gather evidence from parents and professionals who support pupils in the school. Throughout the inspection, the lead inspector evaluated how well the school meets the independent school standards.
