Ofsted Insights

What This School Does Well

New Level Academy prioritises pupil well-being with staff who listen and respond to pupil concerns. The school provides regular personal, social and health education with impartial careers guidance to help pupils plan their futures. Pupils are engaged and calm during lessons, with clear behaviour expectations and effective attendance tracking.

Key Strengths

  • Pupils receive regular, age-appropriate personal, social and health education including impartial careers guidance
  • Strong safeguarding culture with staff who prioritise pupils' well-being effectively
  • Effective behaviour policy implementation with pupils remaining focused and calm
  • Increased safeguarding leadership expertise across the school
  • Effective attendance procedures and tracking systems

Areas for Improvement

  • Leadership has not completed planned actions within proposed timeframes, limiting school improvement capacity
  • Safeguarding records lack robustness - important information stored in multiple locations rather than centrally
  • Key safeguarding information not easily accessible to all relevant staff
  • Proposed recruitment of board members with specialist expertise not completed
  • Planned external expertise support from a trust not fully implemented

Safeguarding

Safeguarding arrangements are effective with pupils feeling safe and trusting staff; however, procedures for recording safeguarding actions lack robustness as important information is scattered across multiple locations rather than stored centrally.

New Level Academy is an independent school providing alternative provision for pupils aged 11 to 19 with social, emotional and mental health needs. The school does not meet all independent school standards, with particular concerns about leadership and management oversight.
