The education watchdog visited Hill Avenue Academy in Lanesfield in January and concluded it had taken "effective action" to maintain the grade, which it achieved upon a full inspection in 2019.

In their report published this month, inspectors said: "Pupils enjoy learning at Hill Avenue. In lessons they listen carefully, show determination, and support each other during group work. 

"By the end of Year 6, most pupils achieve the school’s high expectations. Pupils leave as knowledgeable and considerate individuals who are well-prepared for secondary school.

"Pupils fully reflect the school values of ‘happiness, achieve, respect and teamwork’ in how they conduct themselves. They are kind and caring towards each other."
