2 3. Background/Main Issues 3.1 Education Scotland/HMIE Inspections 3.1.1 As required for the National Improvement Framework, HMIE will report on and provide grades for the following Quality Indicators (QIs) as part of full model inspections: • QI 1.3 – leadership of change; • QI 2.3 – learning, teaching and assessment; • QI 3.1 – ensuring wellbeing, equality and inclusion; and • QI 3.2 – raising attainment and achievement. Short model inspections focus on QIs 2.3 and 3.2. 3.2 ELC Inspections 3.2.1 ELC settings are subject to inspections from the Care Inspectorate and Education Scotland and can experience joint inspections where both scrutiny bodies evaluate the quality of the provision. Due to higher levels of scrutiny in the ELC sector, it has been agreed nationally that an ELC setting which has been inspected by the Care Inspectorate will not receive an inspection by Education Scotland within 18 months. 3.2.2 The quality framework for daycare of children, childminding and school- aged childcare is framed around four key questions. Each of these include a number of QIs for actual inspection which are: • How good is our care, play and learning? • How good is our setting? • How good is our leadership? • How good is our staff team? The final key question is: What is our overall capacity for improvement? This requires a global judgement based on evidence and evaluations from all the other key areas but is not evaluated specifically. 3.2.3 Each QI is graded on a 6-point scale in which 1 = unsatisfactory, 2 = weak, 3 = adequate, 4 = good, 5 = very good and 6 = excellent, and the overall key question evaluation is based on the lowest QI rating if more than one is completed. Following the publication of Funding follows the child and the national standard for early learning and childcare providers: principles and practice, all ELC settings must gain evaluations of good or better to be able to provide funded ELC in partnership with the local authority.

3 3.2.4 Recommendations and requirements may follow an inspection. • Recommendations: statements that set out actions the care service provider should take to improve or develop the quality of the service; and • Requirements: statements which set out what is required of the care service provider to comply with relevant legislation. 3.2.5 Care service providers must submit an action plan to the Care Inspectorate addressing any requirements and recommendations identified. Progress against the action plan is monitored by the Care Inspectorate through annual return and self-assessment forms submitted by the care service provider, and through subsequent inspection. 4. Recently Published Reports 4.1 Education Scotland/HMIE Inspections 4.1.1 Since the Executive Sub-Committee of Learning and Families Committee on 2 June 2025, the following reports have been published by Education Scotland1: • Blackford Primary School Blackford Primary School was inspected in April 2025 by Education Scotland.

5.1.4 In Perth and Kinross, there is an expectation that ELC provision and schools meet “good” evaluations in all QIs. This is higher than the national “satisfactory” expectation. Therefore, where a school or ELC setting receives less than a “good” evaluation, the Quality Improvement Officer for the school/setting works with the Headteacher/Manager to develop an action plan which will secure improvement in the areas of identified need. 5.1.5 Benchmarking data for ELC, primary and secondary inspections up to March 2024 using national and comparator authority information is shown in Appendix 4. 5.1.6 For all ELC QIs evaluated from 2016/17 to date, 81% were graded as ‘good’ or better. 5.1.7 For all primary school QIs evaluated from 2016/17 to date, 77% were graded as ‘good’ or better. 5.1.8 For all secondary school QIs evaluated from 2016/17 to date, 25% were graded as ‘good’ or better. 5.2 Care Inspectorate 5.2.1 This section provides a summary of the performance of ELC settings in inspections carried out by the Care Inspectorate. A total of 4 Day Care services across Perth and Kinross have been inspected by the Care Inspectorate and reported to the Executive Sub-Committee of the Learning and Families Committee since the beginning of the financial year 2025/26. 5.2.2 Table 2 below gives a summary of the evaluations for each Key Question. A summary list of inspections, as well as benchmarking over a longer time period (since financial year 2021/22) against national and comparator data, can be found in Appendix 5. This also includes an analysis of overall evaluation statistics to give the current position of inspections. Table 2: Number of Evaluations Received in Perth and Kinross 2025/26 to Date.

8 5.2.3 There is an expectation that ELC providers meet “good” evaluations in all QIs. Therefore, where an ELC provider receives less than a “good” evaluation, the Service Manager and Quality Improvement Officer for the ELC establishment works with the Headteacher/Manager/Leader to develop an action plan which will secure improvement in the areas of identified need. 5.2.4 In November 2024, Wild Sparks Outdoor Nursery located outside Coupar Angus took the business decision to close its nursery provision from June 2025. The Early Years Team have provided support to the manager ensuring all parents/carers had childcare provision from August 2025 where required. 6. Conclusion 6.1 Inspection reports provide further information on the standards and quality in Perth and Kinross schools, nurseries and funded partners providing ELC. This report sets out the outcomes of Education Scotland and Care Inspectorate reports of schools and ELC settings inspected and published since last reported to the Executive Sub-Committee of the Learning and Families Committee on 2 June 2025. The overall performance of schools and ELC settings in inspections is strong, and where necessary, action plans put in place provide evidence of continuous improvement. 7.

During our visit, we talked to parents/carers and children and worked closely with the headteacher and staff. The inspection team found the following strengths in the school’s work. • Led effectively by the headteacher, all staff have created a nurturing and inclusive environment. Relationships across the school community are positive and based clearly on mutual trust and respect. • Children are welcoming, friendly and proud of their school. They engage enthusiastically in class and talk confidently about their successes in learning. • Teachers make very effective use of digital technologies across learning and teaching. Children use a range of tools confidently to support and enhance their learning across the curriculum, and to develop their digital skills. The following areas for improvement were identified and discussed with the headteacher and a representative from Perth and Kinross Council. • Teachers need to use assessment data and other key information to evaluate and evidence that planned interventions are improving outcomes for children. They should use this information to inform their future planning. • The headteacher and staff should continue to raise attainment, particularly in writing and numeracy. 4 Page 17 of 40

During our visit, we talked to parents/carers and children and worked closely with the headteacher and staff. The inspection team found the following strengths in the school’s work. • Led effectively by the acting headteacher, the new staff team work well together across the school and nursery. They have created a welcoming and nurturing culture where children feel valued and cared for. • Across the school and nursery, children are respectful, kind and welcoming. As a result, they are happy, engaged and are making good progress in their learning. • The acting headteacher and staff have developed effective approaches to support them in monitoring children’s progress in literacy and numeracy over time. • In the school and nursery, staff work closely with partners to provide effective support for children facing challenges in their learning and wellbeing. The following areas for improvement were identified and discussed with the headteacher and a representative from Perth and Kinross Council. • The acting headteacher and staff should develop further their approaches to better involve children, parents and partners in improvement planning processes. In doing so, they should provide children and staff with more opportunities to lead and influence change across the school and nursery. • Staff in the primary school need to continue to raise awareness and develop children’s understanding of their wellbeing and rights. • Across the school and nursery, staff should review and improve approaches to planning to ensure all learning is sufficiently challenging for children. This will support all children to make the best possible progress with their learning. 4 Page 19 of 40

1 | Acadamaidh Pheairt - Perth Academy, Perth and Kinross Council, 5350638 © Crown Copyright 20 May 2025 Dear Parent/Carer In March 2024, HM Inspectors published a letter on Perth Academy. The letter set out a number of areas for improvement which we agreed with the school and Perth and Kinross Council. Recently, as you may know, we visited the school again. During our visit, we talked to young people and worked closely with the headteacher and staff. We heard from the headteacher and other staff about the steps the school has taken to improve. We looked at particular areas that had been identified in the original inspection and at other aspects of the school’s work. As a result, we were able to find out about the progress the school has made and how well this is supporting young peoples’ learning and achievements. This letter sets out what we found. The local authority should continue to work with the headteacher to stabilise school leadership and support school improvement further. All key stakeholders, including learners, should be engaged more effectively in agreeing improvement priorities. The school have made progress in this area for development. Senior leaders are driving forward change at pace across all areas of the school. The leadership at senior level within the school is now more stable. The senior leadership team currently comprises the headteacher and four depute heads. This stability is leading to important developments in the quality of teaching and learning in Perth Academy. The initial inspection identified a need for leadership to be developed which included and involved everyone across the school community. Led by the headteacher, the senior leadership team are working together better to develop key aspects of the school’s work through their strategic remits. Senior leaders should ensure they focus on further developing a collaborative culture where all members of the school community feel valued, empowered and respected. It is important that the school values are demonstrated by all members of this school community. Middle leaders report that they feel empowered to develop and improve their departments and faculties. This includes through the addition of more robust approaches to monitoring and evaluating their work. In addition, middle leaders are more actively sharing good practice across the school. Leadership by young people has improved since the initial inspection. The Pupil Voice leaders, Equalities group and Rights Respecting ambassadors are strong examples of where this is working well. Senior leaders should continue to develop this further in the school to ensure that all young people are consulted and involved in developing school improvement priorities, processes and policies which directly impact on them. Actions taken as a direct result of consultation should be clearer to young people. This will support all young people to recognise that their views are listened to and taken into account, strengthening their sense of belonging and pride in their school community. 4 Page 23 of 40

They should plan tasks and activities that are more motivating, relevant and set at the right level of difficulty for young people. There has been good progress in this area for development since the initial inspection. There has been a clear focus on improving the quality of learning, teaching and assessment across the school. The Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) working group, in partnership with young people and parents, have developed ‘Our Learning’ - a Perth Academy approach to learning, teaching and assessment. This supports well improvements in the consistency and routines of learning. Young people and teachers speak confidently about this approach. They report that it is having a positive impact on the motivation and engagement of the majority of learners. As part of ‘Our Learning’ the school has focused on improving how teachers share the purpose of learning with young people and check for understanding. Most teachers are now consistently using starters, the purpose of learning and how young people can recognise successful learning within a lesson. Most teachers are now more effectively supporting young people to better reflect on their learning. Senior leaders and staff are at an early stage of ensuring lessons are planned carefully to take account of the needs of all young people. Too often young people in classes undertake the same tasks and activities when some young people require more difficult tasks. Teachers need to consider fully how they plan and provide learning activities that take better account of the needs of all young people, including those who require more challenge in their learning. Senior leaders and staff should review approaches to improving wellbeing, attainment and achievement to enable all young people to maximise their potential and achieve success. All stakeholders should contribute to improving wellbeing for the whole school community. There has been insufficient progress in the area of wellbeing. The school’s relationship policy is evident across the school and in most classes, relationships between staff and young people are positive. The school should now consider a range of strategies to ensure young people feel they are treated fairly and equitably. This may include a whole school focus on children’s rights as part of their drive towards Gold, Rights Respecting Schools accreditation. A few young people are not yet demonstrating the school values in all classrooms. The behaviour of a few young people in corridors and classrooms continues to cause concern to others. The recent pupil voice conference discussed this issue, and a ‘Corridor Charter’ has been drafted. This is yet to be launched, and senior leaders should use this and other strategies in consultation with all young people to address their concerns. It is important that staff continue their work to ensure a calm and purposeful environment across all areas of the school. Page 24 of 40

3 | Acadamaidh Pheairt - Perth Academy, Perth and Kinross Council, 5350638 © Crown Copyright A minority of staff and young people continue to report that their wellbeing is not well supported. Senior leaders need to ensure that resources are used appropriately to support the wellbeing of staff and pupils. A minority of staff are not yet fully aware of the needs of young people in their classes and their responsibilities in relation to meeting their needs. The online system to inform staff of the needs of young people and strategies to support them, should now be streamlined for teacher use. Senior leaders should ensure all staff are now more confident in how to better support all learners and monitor how this is leading to improved outcomes for young people. Staff have engaged in training on wellbeing and agreed a shared understanding of the language of wellbeing. It is currently not evident that this is leading to successful outcomes for all young people. All staff need to be clearer about their responsibilities in ensuring the wellbeing of all. Senior leaders should ensure all staff robustly support the wellbeing of young people through their planning for learning. There remains a need for improvements in attainment and achievement. Senior staff should consider how they support this improvement through an appropriate curriculum for equity and excellence. The local authority should continue to support staff as they improve Gàidhlig and implement their vision for change. Young people should be encouraged further to continue with Gàidhlig (Gaelic) Medium Education as they move from primary to secondary stages and through the senior phase to gain qualifications. All staff across the school should play their part in developing a positive ethos for Gàidhlig that promotes equity and equality. The school has made appropriate progress towards addressing this area of improvement. The headteacher demonstrates positive commitment to continuing to develop and promote Gàidhlig Medium Education within Acadamaidh Pheairt - Perth Academy. The recent appointment of lead teachers for Gàidhlig primary and secondary schools within the local authority helps to provide a clearer vision for Gàidhlig Medium Education and Gaelic (Learners). The detailed improvement plan priorities are resulting in a clearer vision for this area of work. The local authority should continue to engage with the school to meet outcomes in the council’s own Gàidhlig Language Plan. Senior leaders involve all school staff in professional learning specific to Gàidhlig. As a result, teachers’ understanding of the principles of Gàidhlig Medium Education has improved. They are aware of the statements for Gàidhlig in the General Teaching Council of Scotland’s (GTCS) professional standards and acknowledge their responsibilities. A few teachers are beginning to promote an understanding of Gàidhlig into their subjects for example, through songs within Scottish music and creating Gàidhlig text within technologies. Gàidhlig lessons are being offered for interested staff. This promotes a more positive and inclusive Gàidhlig ethos throughout the school. Senior leaders and teachers with responsibility for Gàidhlig work well together to implement relevant priorities within their department improvement plan. This is leading to positive Page 25 of 40
Page 26
4 | Acadamaidh Pheairt - Perth Academy, Perth and Kinross Council, 5350638 © Crown Copyright change and Gàidhlig improvements for young people within the school. Young people are proud of the increased visibility of Gàidhlig throughout the school. The school’s vision and values have recently been rebranded, with Gàidhlig text included on posters displayed within classes. Children’s rights are also displayed in Gàidhlig. Senior leaders should increase information about its Gàidhlig provision on the school’s website and within the school handbook. This should include that the school’s Gàidhlig provision serves the whole of the city, references the benefits of bilingualism, and details of the curriculum. There remains capacity for more young people to choose Gaelic (Learners) and Gàidhlig Medium Education. What happens next? The school has made some progress since the original inspection. We will liaise with Perth and Kinross Council regarding the school’s capacity to improve. We will return to carry out a further inspection of the school within 23 months of the publication of this letter. We will discuss with Perth and Kinross Council the details of this inspection and how the local authority is supporting improvement. When we return to inspect the school, we will write to you as parents informing you of the progress the school has made. Teri McIntosh HM Inspector Page 26 of 40

Appendix 5: Summary of Care Inspectorate Day Care of Children Inspections National and Comparator Authority Benchmarking 2021/22 to date (Comparator and National Data as of 28 February 20251) 1 All data supplied by Care Inspectorate Data Store and covers published inspections to 31/05/2025. This includes PKC Partner Provider settings for PKC and non-Local Authority supplied settings for Comparator Authorities/ National. 4 Page 35 of 40
Page 36
Overall, most ELC settings perform well. PKC perform consistently better than comparator authorities, and at national level when inspected by Care Inspectorate. Most inspections are good or better for all Quality Indicators. We are scoring above our comparator authorities and at national level. A continued focus on embedding the Experiences and Spaces Document and Family Mealtime Experience audit are both having a very positive impact on the grading for How good is our setting. The ELC Leadership programme continues to support the How good is our Leadership grading with a focus on the high standard of Quality Assurance, robust Self Evaluation and Improvement Planning. It should be noted that the Early Years Team are currently working with a number of settings to take forward action plans to address the outcomes of these inspections. Where evaluations are adequate or weak, a ‘team around the setting’ approach is taken in order to secure improvements. Currently, action plans are in for 4 settings which are supported by relevant officers. These are regularly monitored and reviewed with a final report on improvements being presented to parents.
