Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Reading underpins the whole curriculum, and children’s love of books is evident throughout the school. The way mathematics is taught is innovative.
Success of the Curriculum: The curriculum affords opportunities for pupils to widen their knowledge and skills in motivating and engaging ways.
Areas Needing Improvement: Further improve the proportion of pupils who achieve the higher levels of attainment by the end of key stage 1.
Performance in Maths & Reading: The most recent national tests show pupils are achieving significantly higher standards than others nationally, with 95% reaching the expected standard.
Support for Falling Behind: Leaders and teachers intervene rapidly when a pupil may not be on track to reach the challenging level expected of them.

Support for SEND Pupils: Pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities are continually challenged to extend and consolidate their learning.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Systems and procedures are robust to keep pupils safe from harm. Pupils understand what bullying is and report that it happens extremely rarely.

Parent Feedback: Parents overwhelmingly support events and activities throughout the year; they appreciate the lengths staff go to and feel highly engaged.
Parental Involvement: Leaders, governors and staff work extremely hard to engage parents in their own children's learning and welcome them into school.
Extracurricular Activities: A wide variety of after-school opportunities, such as choir, judo, and guitar clubs, enhance the curriculum further.
Teacher Engagement: Teachers are keen to seek advice and support to improve their practice. Staff truly value professional development opportunities available.
Impact on Student Progress: Extremely strong teaching over time has led to outstanding outcomes. Teachers’ subject knowledge, particularly in English and mathematics, is exceptional.
