In a report published this week, an inspector praised the welcoming and well-behaved pupils and recognised the work behind ‘significant improvements’ in the quality of teaching and the curriculum since the last inspection.
Medmerry has been rated as a ‘good’ school since 2010.
The latest report, following an inspection in December, noted the broad curriculum taught at Medmerry, alongside extra-curricular activities such as archery and kickboxing.

HM inspector Catherine Old found staff had worked hard to create a ‘buzz’ about reading throughout the school in the last few months and the standard of mathematics was strong throughout the school.
Headteacher Michael Tidd said: “Medmerry School is a welcoming and friendly community and we pride ourselves on a broad and engaging curriculum, so it’s pleasing to see these qualities recognised in the inspection report.
“The outcome reflects the hard work of the whole school community – parents, staff and pupils – all of whom work together to make Medmerry such a great place to teach and learn.”
