Parents in the Isle of Man are being told this week about the outcome of a review of local primary schools.
The Self-Review and Evaluation process has considered what they do well and where they need to take action to improve.
Murray's Road, St Mary's, Ballacloan, Marown and Kewaigue are the schools involved.
The work involves an external validator and a department of education adviser working with headteachers.
Deputy director of education Stuart Dobson (pictured) explains how the validation works (play attached audio file):
'Monster' jailed for 20 years
Sex offender's behaviour was 'disturbing and abhorrent'
DHA seeking 'urgent explanation' after person on 'life licence' moved to IoM
Island's 2026 bonfire season sparks into life this evening
