History and performance

The school was established in 1926.[ citation needed ].

In 2001 it was inspected by Ofsted, with the finding that "Pupils’ attainment on entry is well below average overall ... Ellis Guilford School provides a sound education for its pupils within circumstances that are relatively challenging. Although standards in relation to schools nationally are below average, the majority of pupils make at least satisfactory progress". [2] In 2006 and 2010 it was inspected again and judged Good. [3] [4] In 2013 inspection judged it Inadequate because of slow progress made by students and the lack of engaging teaching. [5] In 2015 it was judged Good. [6] In 2018 it was judged Inadequate: Special Measures Required on the grounds of poor teaching, poor outcomes, ineffective safeguarding, low attendance and poor strategic planning. [7] [8]

The school became an academy a month after this inspection, in November 2018. [1] It is part of the Creative Education Trust. [1] As of 2020 it has not been inspected since academisation.

The school was criticised in January 2018 after introducing a ban on pupils cycling to school unless they had passed safety training. [9]
