  • Letter from SIAMS

    Mon 11 Mar 2024

    Dear Parents,

    Please find below letter from SIAMS inspector.

    Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) Inspection
    of George Carey CE Primary School


    Letter from Victoria Burgess, SIAMS Inspector

    Dear Parents and Carers,

    All Church of England and Methodist schools are inspected approximately every five years by a SIAMS inspector from the Church of England, although there has been some delay to our inspections due to Covid.

    I will be inspecting your child’s school on 15/03/24.

    A SIAMS inspection is an opportunity to highlight the impact that the school’s Christian vision has on the flourishing of the whole school community.

    As part of my evidence-gathering I will speak with a range of people from within the school community. It is likely that I will speak with some of you on the inspection day.

    Following the inspection, I will write a report. Once the report has been finalised it will be published, and the inspection findings will be shared with you. This will be approximately three weeks after the inspection. The report will celebrate all that is special about the school and will identify next steps that are helpful in the school’s ongoing development as a Church school.

    The report will be published on the school’s website, and I would encourage you to read it.

    I look forward to spending time with the school community on 15th March.

    Kind regards,

    Victoria Burgess, SIAMS Inspector

    Place2Be is the UK's leading school-based mental health charity, providing support to children, families and school-based staff when they need it most.

    Please help us support Place2Be’s vital work, and together we can make a real difference to children's mental health and ensure that children don’t have to face mental health problems alone.

    Friday 9th February 2024 will be 'Express yourself day'. Children can come to school in their non-uniform.
