Ofsted inspectors praise 'impressive' new school near Oswestry
A school which caters for children with special learning needs has been told it is ‘impressive’ by inspectors.
The Derwen School, which opened within the grounds of Derwen College in Gobowen, near Oswestry, earlier this year, has officially been rated good by Ofsted.
Inspectors said the school had made a good start and personal development, behaviour and welfare has been rated as outstanding.
Melanie Callaghan-Lewis, lead inspector, said: “The leadership of the school is impressive.
“In a very short time, leaders have established a caring culture.
“Pupils who have not attended education for a considerable time settle into school quickly.
