About Hazlehurst Primary Academy
Hazlehurst Primary Academy received an Inadequate rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in March 2023, a significant drop from its previous Outstanding rating in 2011. The inspection report paints a mixed picture: leadership and management, and the quality of education, were both judged Inadequate, while behaviour and attitudes were rated Requires improvement. On a more positive note, personal development was judged Good, and early years provision was Requires improvement. This is a school that has clearly struggled since its last inspection over a decade ago, and the current rating places it in a difficult position for parents prioritising strong academic oversight. With only 173 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is not full, which may reflect local families’ response to the Ofsted outcome.
