MSP Comments on Banff Academy Inspection Report

Local MSP Stewart Stevenson has today written to the Chief Executive of Aberdeenshire Council regarding the inspection that was recently carried out by Education Scotland at Banff Academy.

Inspectors awarded the school five ‘weak’ ratings in the quality indicators that it was assessed on.

Mr Stevenson commented:

“Whilst I know that the staff at Banff Academy work very hard to ensure that they provide a quality education for all pupils, this report shows that there is considerable room for improvement at the school.

“Having studied the inspectors’ report, I have written to the Chief Executive of Aberdeenshire Council to ask what measures the school and the Council will be taking to build on the inspectors’ findings.”
