Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Leaders ensure that reading is a priority. Well-trained staff deliver an effective early reading and phonics programme.
Success of the Curriculum: Leaders have strengthened the school’s curriculum. Learning in mathematics builds on what pupils already know and do.
Areas Needing Improvement: Assessment in the foundation subjects is not precise enough to check what pupils know and can do over time.
Performance in Maths & Reading: In most subjects, including mathematics and reading, leaders have identified precisely what pupils need to learn and when.
Support for Falling Behind: Staff make sure that any pupil who falls behind receives support to help them catch up quickly.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Staff have high expectations of pupils’ behaviour. Pupils understand the rewards and sanctions system in school.
Support for SEND Pupils: Teachers support pupils with SEND effectively. Learning is adapted effectively so that pupils with SEND progress well.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Pupils say bullying is rare, but if it did happen, staff would sort it out quickly.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Leaders have established a strong culture of safeguarding. Staff receive regular safeguarding training and updates.
Parent Feedback: Most parents are supportive of the school. One parent said, ‘The school is welcoming, warm, encouraging and supportive.’
Parental Involvement: The new headteacher engaged quickly with the community and reviewed areas for school improvement.
Extracurricular Activities: Pupils engage in a range of activities beyond the taught curriculum, including sporting events and local music festivals.
Teacher Engagement: Teachers make learning fun and interesting. This is particularly evident in the early years.
Impact on Student Progress: Leaders ensure they have precise information about pupils who need extra help, which helps pupils with SEND progress well.

Everyone who has demonstrated wisdom will shine as brightly as the sky above, and everyone who has guided others to honour God will glow for all eternity like the stars.
In Minety, we want everyone to shine in everything they learn as well as in everything they do as a community of Christians.
This statement guides us as students and staff members at Minety to live each day to the fullest and to sparkle by supporting one another.
We urge our kids to strive for excellence in whatever they do and to excel at it.
Everyone who has been wise will shine as bright as the sky above, and everyone who has guided others to worship God will shine forever like the stars, according to the SHINE vision.
Kindness, courtesies, justice, and respect for one another are other characteristics that define us.
Because of this, at Minety C of E Primary School, we live by Jesus' maxim: "Always treat others as you would like them to treat you" (Matthew 7:12).
These principles, which are based on the words of the kids and our larger community, are very similar to the Christian ideals of charity, service, creativity, compassion, and perseverance.
Children will graduate from this institution as the best possible readers, mathematicians, and writers, together with a knowledge of physical and mental fitness.
Only if a passion of learning for learning's sake is cultivated can this occur.
There is so much more to life than producing merely academically capable kids, so this is a failure.
The school should assist parents, who are the centre of a child's existence, in fostering their child's self-assurance by offering a club, a role, or a subject that enables the child to comprehend and experience achievement.
Children will gain self-awareness and an understanding of how they may constantly progress and overcome perceived obstacles as a result of going through this process.
Children must master behaviours and communication skills that allow them to speak and listen with respect for others and for themselves in order to reach this degree of self-awareness.
