Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI

This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.

Foundational Skills: Children quickly develop phonics skills and use them confidently. Most pupils are capable readers by the end of Year 2.
Success of the Curriculum: Standards achieved by pupils have remained consistently above those seen nationally.
Areas Needing Improvement: Fewer pupils than average have attained the higher standards possible in reading, writing and mathematics.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Pupils have consistently made significantly more progress than national averages in reading and mathematics.
Support for Falling Behind: Sharp performance management targets have been set for teachers, and additional teaching is being provided to help these pupils hone their skills.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Behaviour is good in lessons and at social times. Pupils are keen to participate in lessons and share their ideas confidently.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Pupils told me that they feel safe in school and trust adults to help them. Bullying is rare and dealt with quickly.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Systematic reviews of safeguarding arrangements are conducted annually. Staff training is up to date.
Parent Feedback: I met with a group of parents who were part of the inspection process.
Parental Involvement: Parents and carers can book appointments to talk through their worries, and many take up this opportunity.
Extracurricular Activities: Younger pupils have many opportunities to learn outdoors and there are good facilities designed to stimulate their senses. Older pupils benefit from a wide range of visits to enrich their understanding of the world.
Outdoor Facilities: There are good facilities designed to stimulate their senses.
Teacher Engagement: Teachers hold high expectations and are precise in explaining and modelling what they want pupils to achieve.
Impact on Student Progress: Teachers foster high expectations and challenge pupils to work hard. Outcomes are on course to remain above those seen nationally.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Subject leaders have carefully considered how pupils’ progress across the wider curriculum should be assessed.
Teaching Staff Challenges: The need to ensure that teaching across each year group is sufficiently challenging for the most able pupils.

In September 2008, Seaham Trinity Primary School became operational as a brand-new building.
We have made a lot of effort since we first opened to raise the standard of the care provided to our kids.
Our more recent, improved results for student achievement across the school provide evidence of this.
Although there is still space for improvement throughout the school, recent Ofsted inspections have noted the significant progress we have achieved toward becoming a good school.
We now rank among the top 100 most improved schools in the nation because to our improvement in achievement over the past three years.
Parents' opinions on the school were solicited during our most recent inspection in April 2018, and we received over 180 answers.
All of those replies were extremely complimentary of the school and the calibre of the services provided to the students.
