SIAMS Inspection of a Church of England School
WE ARE A CHURCH SCHOOL LIVING UP TO OUR CHRISTIAN FOUNDATION
SIAMS INSPECTION 2024
This recent inspection report evidences that, not only is Morton CE Primary School providing a high quality of education but through its theologically rooted, Christian vision, the provision is effective in enabling all pupils to flourish. The report reads:
The Christian vision is carefully thought through by leaders and governors to ensure that it is right for Morton. It supported and is grown by the vision of the Lincoln Anglican Academy Trust (LAAT). As a result, staff are inspired by the biblical example of Christ’s love and compassion for everyone. They draw on the core values of respect, believe, enjoy and achieve as a way to build strong relationships.
The journey of our wonderful school has been so very exciting, and we thank all stakeholders for their support. Our whole staff team were highlighted for well-deserved praise:
Staff live out the vision by diligently serving pupils and families at Morton…..Staff work above and beyond to strive for the best provision for every pupil.
Morton School really is at the very heart of the community, and we are immensely proud of the links we have beyond our school building. Collective worship was celebrated:
Collective worship has a significant impact on the school's ethos, especially on the positive relationships that arise as a consequence. This is because worship is framed in a joyful and engaging experience.
Our school would not be the special place it is without the continued drive, commitment and unwavering support of you, our well-respected parents and carers and the resilience and determination of your wonderful children.
The Christian vision ensures that the mental health and wellbeing of pupils is a priority. …. Leaders help families to work with external agencies, making sure pupils benefit from a curriculum that is ambitious for them. The impact is relationships are restored by living out the Christian values of forgiveness and love.
We give thanks also to the governors, Rev Neil Bullen and Wendy Sharman (Bishop’s Visitor) who are all very valued members of our school community:
Committed governors provide support and take pride in being the guardians of the school’s Christian character. They regularly evaluate the impact of the vision and systematically check how the vision drives the school's priorities.
Our curriculum and the impact it has on children was praised:
The curriculum encourages pupils to flourish in their learning and to use knowledge wisely. This reflects the school’s vision of achieving anything in life’s journey. The ambitious curriculum is supported in its development by the trust and focuses on growing the talents of each pupil.
