Our most recent Ofsted inspection was in July 2024. There has been no change to the Academy's overall judgement of 'Good' as a result of this ungraded (Section 8) inspection. However, the evidence gathered suggests that the inspection grade might be 'Outstanding' if a graded (Section 5) inspection were carried out.

Don Valley Academy is proud to be an EEF Research School. One of only 33 Research Schools across England, we work to exemplify our evidence informed teaching and learning strategies, share what we know about putting research into practice, and support schools in the region to make better use of evidence to inform and improve their teaching and learning.
