Thank you for the time you made available to discuss your actions since September 2020, when the government expected all schools to open fully to all pupils. This visit was conducted under section 8 of the Education Act 2005 (as amended) and in accordance with Ofsted’s published procedures for visiting schools while routine inspections are temporarily suspended. Ofsted’s visits to schools during the autumn term are not inspections. We are not giving graded judgements. We did not undertake the usual range of inspection activities and were unable to check other sources of evidence, such as visits to lessons or looking at pupils’ work. The content of this letter gives an overview of our discussions about what has happened in your school this term. During the visit, we spoke to you, the deputy designated safeguarding leader and the English leader. We did not speak to pupils because of the protective measures in place. Context Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education, Children’s Services and Skills is leading Ofsted’s work into how England’s education system is managing the return to full education for pupils following an extended break in formal schooling due to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

  • This Walk Description Is from Happyhiker.Co.Uk Ripley Circular
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Ripley Circular Starting point and OS Grid reference Ripley – free car park (SE 284603) Ordnance Survey map OS Explorer 298 - Nidderdale Distance 9 miles Date of Walk 18 March 2016 Traffic light rating Introduction: This walk from Ripley is an easy 9 mile circuit with little climbing/ascending. The paths/tracks are mostly obvious on the ground and the first section follows the course of the Nidderdale Way. There is some roadwalking but the roads are generally quiet. Ripley itself is a smart, picturesque village dominated by Ripley Castle which is open to the public and still owned by the Ingleby family, after 700 years or so. In the centre is a cobbled square and cross, with stocks if you misbehave! The route works its way down to the River Nidd at Hampsthwaite. This is a large attractive village with a village green. It was awarded a charter to hold an annual market as long ago as 1304. It has a fine church dedicated to St. Thomas a Becket. The village was the ancestral home of William Makepeace Thackery, who wrote Vanity Fair. The river bridge was built in about 1640 but there had previously been a ford there which was on the route of the famous Roman road Watling Street. The route then passes Birstwith before curving round to Burnt Yates and back to Ripley. There are refreshment opportunities at the Joiners Arms or Nelson Inn in Hampsthwaite, the Station Hotel Birstwith or the New Inn in Burnt Yates but check opening times.
