Ossett Academy

Hi there and thankyou for your edits to the Ossett Academy article. Unforunately I have had to revert your most recent edit on this article as it is unsourced. If Contravertial statements are added to an article, it MUST be sourced. Please provide a referenced source so that the information you added can be reinstated. Bleaney (talk) 13:05, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

The source is from the most recent Ofsted report (May 2012) http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/provider/files/2011289/urn/136462.pdf. How do I put the verification in the edit? There is nothing controversial in the edit it is simply referring to Ofsted in the same way that the original article had. Many thanks for the explanation.

Hi there. Firstly, I wouldn't have known you answered me unless you put something on my talk page. When answering another editor in the future drop them a line on their talk page. Secondly, just look at how the other sources have been added on the page and do that with the source you have above. Thirdly, Don't get rid of the information and sources about previous results and ofsted reports, just add your stuff below it. Fourthly, does the ofsted report actually say that Over the last five years, its results have deteriorated significantly coinciding with the Principal being routinely absent from the site or have you linked those two things? And does the report actually say that students have not made good progress in English or mathematics (sic Ofsted report) led by Mr Richard Clifford, Mrs Pamela Yems and Mr Philip Dore - does it actually name the teachers specifically?

Hiya. You know I decided to read the ofsted report myself and and revamped the article a bit... take a look. Bleaney (talk) 22:56, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
