HMI Report - 22nd October 1930

Here is a scan and a copy of the text of the School Inspection Report of 1930.

Report by HMI Miss E.E.Spencer 22nd October 1930

On the occasion of this visit the regular assistant teacher was absent and the supply teacher had been here only just a fortnight. Apparatus has been made for this class but it might usefully be supplemented by some bought apparatus, such as bricks, which cannot be constructed by the teacher. The older infants, who are taught by the Head Teacher have made good progress. Their oral response is evidently much better than at the last visit. There is a very happy atmosphere in this class. The children are quite unrestrained and perfectly natural, whilst the good training they receive is illustrated by their prompt attention and ready obedience.

Premises. The playground is in need of repair. The classroom had not been sufficiently wellcleaned: window sills and ledges had not been properly dusted.
