Foundational Skills: Reading is a priority, and children begin learning to read as soon as they start school.
Success of the Curriculum: Leaders have made some improvements, particularly in history and art and design, but many curriculum areas are incomplete.
Areas Needing Improvement: Leaders need to ensure that all subjects identify precise knowledge and skills pupils need to learn and revisit.
Support for Falling Behind: Leaders are quick to identify and respond to the additional needs of pupils with SEND.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils behave well because of leaders鈥� high expectations and clear rules and routines.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Where the curriculum is more established, such as in English and mathematics, pupils have a secure understanding of what they have learned.
Support for SEND Pupils: Staff successfully make adaptations to their teaching, meaning pupils with SEND learn well alongside their peers.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Leaders ensure systems are in place to keep pupils safe. Staff know how to recognise pupils at risk of harm.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Staff work with outside agencies to ensure pupils get the right support.
Parent Feedback: Parents can use Ofsted Parent View to give their opinion on the school.
Parental Involvement: Pupils enjoy contributing to the life of the school, like acting as well-being ambassadors.
Extracurricular Activities: After-school clubs like astronomy and rounders help broaden pupils鈥� experiences.
Teacher Engagement: Staff say that leaders create an atmosphere where everyone is valued and supported.
Impact on Student Progress: In subjects like English and mathematics, pupils have opportunities to build on what they have already learned.
Teaching Staff Challenges: Assessment practices in new curriculum areas are weak. Staff do not have a secure understanding of pupil learning in these subjects.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Current assessment arrangements need strengthening to better understand the impact of the curriculum on pupils鈥� learning.
