Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: The school understands the fundamental importance of pupils鈥� learning to read well, embedding an early reading scheme that enables pupils to learn phonics quickly and effectively.
Success of the Curriculum: The school has developed a well-sequenced curriculum that details key knowledge, skills, and vocabulary in all subjects.
Areas Needing Improvement: Teachers do not use assessment strategies fully effectively to inform future learning, leading to missed opportunities to build on pupils' previous learning.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Older pupils talk with pleasure about the novels they choose to read from the well-stocked library. The school ensures disadvantaged pupils, including pupils with SEND, make equal gains.
Support for Falling Behind: Pupils who are struggling to learn to read are given high-quality support to help them catch up.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils want to do their best in both work and behavior, and the school environment helps create a calm and conducive learning space.
Support for SEND Pupils: Support for disadvantaged pupils and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities is well considered.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, creating an open and positive culture around safeguarding that puts pupils鈥� interests first.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Pupils鈥� behaviour in classrooms and around the school is good, helping to create a calm learning environment.
Parent Feedback: Parents greatly appreciate the efforts staff make, contributing to a very positive environment for pupils.
Parental Involvement: A very well-organized transition helps children in early years get into the school鈥檚 routines with no delay, and parents appreciate this greatly.
Extracurricular Activities: Pupils access a very wide range of activities and clubs, enjoying many class trips, including progressively adventurous residential trips.
Outdoor Facilities: The school has developed a strong 鈥極utdoor Woodland Learning鈥� (鈥極WL鈥�) environment, blending forest school activities with classroom learning seamlessly.
Teacher Engagement: The pace of improvement has been rapid since the appointment of new leaders who have established a dedicated team. Parents greatly appreciate staff efforts.
Impact on Student Progress: Teachers ensure that disadvantaged pupils, including pupils with SEND, make equal gains in their learning, though they miss some opportunities to build on pupils' previous learning.
Teaching Staff Challenges: Despite efforts, teachers miss some opportunities to build on pupils鈥� learning due to less effective use of assessment strategies in foundation subjects.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Teachers' subject knowledge is strong and they check how well pupils have learned, but they do not always use this information effectively to plan future lessons.
