Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Clear strategies for teaching writing and mathematics are evident in the good progress seen in pupils’ books.
Success of the Curriculum: Recent work by leaders to review the curriculum has led to a well-structured plan.
Areas Needing Improvement: New approaches to the organisation of phonics teaching in Years 1 and 2 have yet to make a sufficiently positive impact.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Leaders invest in providing extra skilled teaching for improving reading skills throughout the curriculum.
Support for Falling Behind: Targeted programmes inspire pupils who have fallen behind to start to read.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils respond well to the high expectations for behaviour. Exclusions have considerably reduced.
Support for SEND Pupils: School leaders, including the SENCo, are reflective and accurate in their appraisal of maintaining strengths and weaknesses.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Staff respond well to incidents of bullying and deal with issues thoroughly.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: The rich curriculum includes promoting mental health awareness; mindfulness is included in weekly lessons.
Parent Feedback: Parents, including those who have children with SEND, say they are included well in communications about their children’s progress.
Parental Involvement: An ambassadorial advisory group collects parents' views and ensures these views are taken into account when decisions are made.
Extracurricular Activities: Music education is a strength of the school with specialist teachers delivering a well-planned music curriculum.
Outdoor Facilities: Residential trips, for example to explore outdoor activities on the Isle of Wight, extend pupils' experiences.
Teacher Engagement: Leaders provide valuable training that encourages, challenges and supports teachers in their roles.
Impact on Student Progress: Teachers generally plan well-constructed lessons that build pupils’ knowledge over sequences of lessons.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Frequent ‘raising-achievement boards’ focus on checking the quality of education and identifying next priorities.
Teaching Staff Challenges: At times, pupils with SEND do not have tasks adapted well enough to work independently.
