Tandragee Primary School

Overview

The inspection was conducted during industrial action, with staff declaring non-cooperation with the Education and Training Inspectorate. Consequently, the report states the ETI was “unable to assure... of the quality of education being provided” and could not evaluate key areas such as outcomes, provision, or leadership.

Strengths

• The report identifies no specific strengths, as the ETI was “unable to evaluate” learning outcomes, curriculum quality, or leadership effectiveness due to the lack of cooperation.
• No performance levels were available for outcomes, provision, or leadership.

Areas to improve

• The report does not list specific areas for improvement, as it could not evaluate the school’s performance.
• The school is designated as a “high priority for future inspection with no further notice” due to the inability to assure quality.

Safeguarding

The school provided evidence that safeguarding arrangements “reflect broadly the guidance from the Department of Education,” though the ETI was “unable to evaluate fully the outworking of the arrangements” owing to the industrial action.
