Ofsted and Performance

Following Ofsted's inspection of Outwood Academy Bydales on Tue 30 Jan 2018, we were rated as Outstanding.

This was our first inspection since becoming a part of the Outwood Family and we are proud of our Outstanding rating.

"Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary. They are polite, well mannered and mature. Pupils value the opinions of their classmates and want the best for each other."
