The Religious Education aspect of the school was inspected under the new Catholic School Inspection Framework in November 2022 which superseded the Section 48 Inspection from 1st September 2022 and Our Lady of Fatima is one of the first Catholic Schools to experience this more stringent inspection.

We are delighted that Our Lady of Fatima secured a 'Good' judgement for overall effectiveness, with Outstanding grades for Catholic Life and Collective Worship

Below are some of the key areas that the inspectors highlighted about our school:

Our Lady of Fatima staff are excellent role models, promoting the mission and Catholic life of the school. Teachers use excellent questioning skills that deepen pupils' understanding of Religious
Education. Pupils are respectful, kind, courteous, and enthusiastic about learning about their faith. Senior leaders are inspirational in driving the vision and mission of the school forward in a
caring and inclusive manner. The school's physical environment promotes the Catholic faith and ethos of the school, encouraging and developing prayer.
