Ofsted has heaped more praise on a Harrogate primary school which continues to be recognised as a 'centre of excellence for nurture and pastoral care.'
Ripley Endowed CE Primary is located between Ripon and Harrogate and was branded a ‘small school with a big heart’ by inspectors last year.
And the school continues to showcase its core values of ‘community, compassion and courage’.
Ofsted inspectors said:
“Pupils have many varied opportunities to discover the world outside their beautiful village.
“These opportunities prepare pupils to be active citizens of the future.”
It follows a glowing Ofsted report last year.

Executive Headteacher, Victoria Kirkman said:
“We are hugely proud that whomever visits our school, whether external professionals or prospective families, they immediately feel as sense of calm, purpose and part of our Ripley family.”
Ripley CE is part of a Federation with Beckwithshaw and Kettlesing.
