Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Children鈥檚 outcomes in early years, including in literacy and writing, have improved consistently over the last three years as a result of strong leadership and effective provision.
Success of the Curriculum: You now have in place an extensive curriculum that gives pupils access to a wide range of subjects and extra-curricular experiences, such as forest school, from their first day in school.
Areas Needing Improvement: Proportions of pupils achieving the expected standard in phonics in Year 1 were not as high as national averages.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Standards for boys were above the national average in reading, writing and mathematics, and for most-able boys in reading and mathematics.
Support for Falling Behind: The introduction of a rich vocabulary in the wider curriculum has ensured that current disadvantaged pupils are doing well.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils reported that they felt safe and secure in school. Behaviour seen in lessons and around the school was of a consistently high standard.
Support for SEND Pupils: A minority of the very small number of parents responding to Parent View said they do not receive valuable information from school about their children鈥檚 progress.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: Pupils spoken to knew how to keep themselves safe in a range of potentially risky situations. They reported that there is no bullying and that pupils are 鈥榥ice to each other鈥�.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Safeguarding arrangements are fit for purpose. Leaders are well trained to carry out their duties effectively.
Parent Feedback: All of the very small number of parents and carers who responded to Parent View agreed that the school keeps their children safe and well looked after.
Parental Involvement: Specific strategies have had an impact on some hard-to-reach families, including agreeing attendance plans with them.
Extracurricular Activities: Extensive curriculum gives pupils access to a wide range of subjects and extra-curricular experiences, such as forest school.
Outdoor Facilities: The early years provision, both inside and outdoors, provides children with a rich experience in clearly designated curriculum areas.
Teacher Engagement: All of the staff responding to the survey said it had improved and that they were proud to be a member of the school.
Impact on Student Progress: By establishing consistently good teaching, you have ensured that standards are rising throughout the school for current pupils.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: The tracking system used by leaders, and shared with staff, indicates clearly where pupils are making at least expected progress and where further support is needed.
Teaching Staff Challenges: There is still some considerable variation in the rates of progress pupils with SEND are making in their writing.
