MABEL Prichard School, in Blackbird Leys, Oxford, which teaches children with severe learning difficulties, has been rated ‘good’ by Government inspectors.

Ofsted said “outstanding levels of care and support” were at the heart of the school’s work, and pupils feel extremely safe at the school, making good progress across all subjects.

Inspectors said there had been improvement in many aspects of the school’s work since its previous inspection, and headteacher Jane Wallington was ambitious to improve the Cuddesdon Way school further.
