The school was put into special measures by ofsted in 1997 after the Secretary of State for Education, he had named and shamed 18 failing schools. Stephen Byers named and acclaimed more than 70 schools across the UK including Shaw park Primary School which turned failure into success.[1]
Chris Woodhead said “Ofsted is delighted to recognise the very substantial improvement in schools that have been removed from special measures during the year covered by this report”. [2]
Michaela Sarah Sheila Saunders was in the 1999 Birthday Honours list and received an OBE as headteacher of the school for services to Education. [3][4]
The school site closed in July 2001 and it’s successor was Thorpe Park Primary School. [5]
The school was demolished and replaced with a skate park. In 2017 the park site was awarded £150,000 upgrade by ward councillors, along with a £30,000 changing facility for the sports field. [6]
