Inspectors from education watchdog Ofsted visit schools across England to ensure the educational institutions are performing well and preparing pupils for further education and life in a community.
Each school is given a rating – outstanding, good, requires improvement, or inadequate.
Below is a list of those Worksop and Bassetlaw primary schools which were given an inspection in 2022.
1. Carr Hill Primary and Nursery School, Tiln Lane, Retford - Good
Ofsted rated the school good after a two-day inspection in April. The inspector said: "Pupils are proud to attend this school. They say that ‘staff go above and beyond to
help you learn and to be happy’. Staff expect all pupils to do well. Pupils behave well. They are polite and courteous to each other, staff and visitors." Photo: Google

They follow the school’s motto to ‘Be the best you can be'. Pupils say that staff are very caring towards them.

4. Orchard School, South Leverton - Requires improvement
A two-day inspection in April found the school requires improvements due to an 'incoherent curriculum plan', however the inspectors noted that pupils are "proud" of their "welcoming" school. They said: "Pupils gain from a range of opportunities that support their personal development. They develop self-confidence, self-awareness and resilience. They apply themselves well in lessons. They take pride in their work." Photo: Google
