The Grange Primary School is currently rated as requiring improvement based on its recent inspection, which noted that the quality of education, behavior and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision all fell short of expectations. The school has made efforts to improve with support from the local authority, but many initiatives are still in early stages and have yet to show significant results. There are positive signs that relationships with the community are strengthening, as the school has started engaging parents through various activities, but the core educational outcomes for students, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), still need to be addressed more effectively.
