Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Children in Reception begin to learn phonics through the school鈥檚 agreed sequence. They continue to build their knowledge through Years 1 and 2.
Success of the Curriculum: The curriculum is organised and planned so that staff know what to teach and when. Staff are knowledgeable and teach with clarity and enthusiasm.
Areas Needing Improvement: Some units in the foundation subjects organise content in an illogical order to try and fit in with the aims of a topic.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Staff use assessment information and evidence from nurseries to accurately identify pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
Support for Falling Behind: Leaders provide useful support to families, helping them to rebuild positive morning routines and increase pupils鈥� attendance.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils behave well because staff model and praise positive behaviour. Systems for rewarding and challenging pupils are consistently used.
Support for SEND Pupils: Leaders have established strong links with families and external agencies, which they use to assess, support, and review provision for pupils with education, health, and care plans.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Pupils feel safe because of the kind and caring culture of the school community. Any instances of poor behaviour or bullying are quickly identified and addressed by staff.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Systems for checking and training staff are rigorous. Staff know how to identify both immediate concerns and small changes in behaviour.
Parent Feedback: Parents and carers appreciate this, telling inspectors how 鈥榣ucky鈥� their children are to attend the school.
Parental Involvement: Governors provide oversight and support to families, aiding them in increasing pupils鈥� attendance at the school.
Extracurricular Activities: Pupils often begin learning a new topic by taking part in trips or events that give them a basic understanding of a concept.
Outdoor Facilities: For example, pupils recently worked with the parish council to organise a litter-pick in the local village.
Teacher Engagement: Staff are knowledgeable and teach with clarity and enthusiasm. They receive useful training to understand the content themselves and how best to deliver this.
Impact on Student Progress: Subject leaders break their subject鈥檚 curriculum into small chunks and ensure that new knowledge builds on what pupils already know.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Staff use assessment information and evidence from nurseries to accurately identify pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
Teaching Staff Challenges: On some occasions, content is arranged to fit 鈥榯opics鈥� rather than following a logical sequence, making it harder for pupils to understand.
