Ofsted and Performance

Following Ofsted's inspection of Outwood Academy Hemsworth on Tue 11 Oct 2022, we were rated as Requires Improvement.

"In lessons, pupils routinely behave well and work hard. This is partly because pupils are well taught. It is also because teachers have very clear expectations."

"Pupils study challenging, academic courses across all year groups, including in the sixth form."

Ofsted, 2022
