From the uniform policy

i

School uniform is an important part of our culture at St Francis. It supports a sense of belonging, is grounded in equality and is an outward sign of our faith.
Students should not just wear their school uniform, but they should also wear it correctly. Adaptations are a choice, contrary to why we have a uniform.

Please find below the PE kit checklist for SFA students, which outlines all appropriate clothing and equipment required for physical education sessions.

Uniform costs

DfE statutory guidance asks schools to keep uniform costs down, to say clearly what is required and what is optional, and to say where second-hand uniform can be bought.

Ofsted

Report cardNo overall grade. Inspected 17/03/2026

Ofsted report cards (from November 2025) grade each area on a five-point scale: Exceptional, Strong standard, Expected standard, Needs attention, Urgent improvement. Safeguarding standards are not graded: they are met or not met. Ofsted gives no overall grade, and none is worked out here.

Area	Judgement
Safeguarding standards	Met
Inclusion	Strong standard
Curriculum and teaching	Strong standard
Achievement	Strong standard
Attendance and behaviour	Strong standard
Personal development and wellbeing	Expected standard
Post-16 provision	Expected standard
Leadership and governance	Strong standard

Inspection history

Date	Outcome
17/03/2026	Report card: Strong standard in 5 areas, Expected standard in 2; safeguarding standards met
16/05/2013	Good
29/11/2006	Outstanding

Ofsted management information, as at 30 September 2026, via WhatSchool: Ofsted may have published a newer report since. Since September 2024 Ofsted no longer gives a single overall grade at new inspections, so a one-word grade, where shown, belongs to the inspection date beside it. Ungraded inspections give no grade and are dated by month only. Inspections from September 2024 to November 2025 grade key judgements; report cards (from November 2025) grade evaluation areas.
