Ofsted Report

As you will be aware, Hailsham Community College had a full Ofsted inspection on 13th and 14th March 2023. The inspectors visited many lessons and spent their time speaking with staff and students. They also looked at assessment data, behaviour and attendance information, and reviewed Ofsted’s Parent View feedback.

The results of the inspection are as follows:

• The quality of education: Requires improvement
• Behaviour and attitudes: Inadequate
• Personal development: Requires improvement
• Leadership and management: Requires improvement
• Early years provision: Good
• Sixth-form provision: Good
Overall judgement: Inadequate (serious weaknesses)
