S4a Group Ltd @ Blakesley CE Primary School in Blakesley, Towcester was last inspected on 21 April 2026. That inspection used Ofsted's report card framework, which replaced single-word overall ratings for early years settings in November 2025.
Ofsted graded 4 areas: behaviour and routines — Expected Standard; welfare and wellbeing — Expected Standard; inclusion — Strong Standard; leadership and governance — Strong Standard. Each area is judged separately, so a setting can be stronger in one than another.
Ofsted did not grade curriculum and teaching or achievement at this setting. A provider is only graded on the areas its registration covers — an out-of-school club, for example, is not inspected on delivering the early years curriculum. It is not a gap in the setting's practice.
