[edit] Special measures
The school was placed in "special measures" following an Ofsted inspection in July 2010. The inspectors said the school was failing to give its pupils an acceptable standard of education
They also said those responsible for leading, managing school were not demonstrating the capacity to secure necessary improvement.
The head teacher, Andrew Williams, left the school with immediate effect to be replaced by a Gary Garghan (Acting Head) and Dave McCready (Executive Head).[1]
On 24 September 2011, Howden School was determined to be Satisfactory by Ofsted, and officially declared to be out of Special Measures.[2]
