No Ofsted grade Inspected 19 May 2026

“Westminster Primary Academy is a school that provides more than just an education.”
“It is a place where pupils and their families are welcomed and supported regardless of their backgrounds or needs.”
“This is especially the case for the pupils who join the school at various points in the year, including those who can only stay for short periods of time.”

“Although pupils typically enjoy their learning, they do not experience the success that they should.”
“This is because the curriculum, including some personal development programme content, is not taught well.”
“Consequently, pupils’ knowledge across different subjects is not secure, regardless of how long they have been at the school.”
