In May 2013 it was reported by local newspaper Sheffield Star that the school had been placed under special measures by Ofsted after being deemed 'inadequate'.[3] The report, which was based on an inspection in March 2013, rated the school Grade 4 overall and in all areas, the lowest possible value in a scale from 1 to 4.[4] Head teacher Diane McKinlay responded with disappointment to the report by stating that Forge Valley was a new school "which is still developing and improving" results.[3] In October 2013 McKinklay resigned her post – David Bowes took over as Head.[citation needed]
In late November 2013 Forge Valley received a short inspection from Ofsted.[citation needed]
