Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Reading is strong across the school with a good basis in the effective teaching of phonics.
Success of the Curriculum: The curriculum is well planned through appropriately thought-out themes which are delivered alongside carefully planned visits and experiences.
Areas Needing Improvement: Teachers are not consistent in using assessment to focus pupils on reaching the highest standards that they are capable of.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Currently, pupils across the school are making strong progress because of the swift actions taken by the head of school.
Support for Falling Behind: Leaders make inventive use of funding to diminish the differences in the progress of disadvantaged pupils. They are ambitious for the progress that this group can make, and ensure support where learners fall behind.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils apply themselves well to their work in class and behave sensibly at lunchtime and breaktimes; they are well mannered, polite, and eager to talk about what they are learning.
Support for SEND Pupils: The proportion of pupils achieving the expected standard in the Year 1 phonics check increased again in 2016, including all the pupils who had special educational needs and/or disabilities.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: There is a strong culture of safeguarding in the school. Pupils know how to keep themselves safe, and staff are thoroughly familiar with the school鈥檚 reporting procedures.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Pupils are safe and secure. The leadership of safeguarding is clear about policies and systems understood by all. All staff are trained and receive frequent updates. Pupils feel safe in school and have a good awareness of how to keep safe online.
Parent Feedback: Leaders and staff work supportively with parents, evident in the positive responses to Ofsted鈥檚 online questionnaire, Parent View.
Parental Involvement: Parents are generally happy about the work set and the information they receive from school. Almost all are confident that their children make progress.
Extracurricular Activities: The curriculum is supplemented well by a range of popular extra-curricular activities, including those supported by good use of sports funding.
Teacher Engagement: Clearer procedures for managing the work of teachers hold them to account for the progress of pupils in their classes. This has been effective in stimulating staff, who are motivated to achieve more challenging targets.
Impact on Student Progress: Senior leaders have effectively improved the impact of teaching on improving pupils鈥� learning, resulting in good progress for the pupils.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Teaching and learning are good and improving because senior leaders make effective checks and provide useful training.
Teaching Staff Challenges: The approach to assessing pupils and then moving them onto more complex work by teachers is not consistent.

From the Grovelands Primary School
At Grovelands Primary School, these principles are frequently reemphasized. It is constantly emphasised how important laws are, whether they control a class, a school, or a nation. Students are attentively heard and shown concern for one another. At Grovelands Primary School, the fundamental concept of respect guides all of our work, both inside and outside of the classroom. The decision to become a values-based school has been made by the staff and governors. We will begin presenting 22 positive values at the start of this school year and continue doing so for two years.
