"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven" - Luke 6:37
What is a SIAMS inspection for?
Technically, to ensure that the school is fulfilling the Trust Deed that established the school in the first place. In essence, it asks the following question:
- How distinctive and effective is the school as a church school?
To answer this, these are the key questions schools will need to answer:
- How well does the school, through its distinctive Christian character, meet the needs of all learners?
- What is the impact of collective worship on the school community?
- How effective is the religious education?
- How effective are the leadership and management of the school as a church school?
Schools are normally inspected every five years. If you want to look at the inspection report on a particular Church school in the diocese, please contact us.
