Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Foundational Skills: Staff have had the training that they need to teach the newly introduced phonics curriculum effectively. Children in the Reception class and pupils in Year 1 build their phonic knowledge confidently.
Success of the Curriculum: Most pupils achieve well. Children in early years benefit from a very cohesive and stimulating curriculum that is taught by skilled staff who have an in-depth understanding of how young children learn.
Areas Needing Improvement: In some subjects, teachers do not provide enough opportunities for pupils to revisit and embed what they have learned.
Performance in Maths & Reading: There is a strong reading culture in the school. Pupils who find reading difficult are given the time that they need to practise and consolidate their phonic knowledge.
Support for Falling Behind: Leaders have devised clear processes to help them identify pupils with SEND, and modify their delivery of the curriculum to ensure appropriate learning.
Behaviour and Attitudes: Pupils鈥� behaviour is exemplary. Disruption in lessons is extremely rare because pupils are completely focused on their learning.
Support for SEND Pupils: Leaders work with parents and carers and outside agencies to provide support to pupils with SEND as needed.
Managing Bullying and Pupil Safety: On the rare occasions that bullying or any discriminatory behaviour takes place, leaders and staff deal with it quickly and effectively.
Promotion of Welfare and Safety: Staff are trained to a high standard. They are skilled at identifying signs that suggest a pupil may be at risk of harm.
Parent Feedback: There were many positive comments from parents about Woodhouse. Parents praised staff highly for their dedication and hard work.
Extracurricular Activities: Pupils like to pursue their interests and regularly attend different clubs including dancing, sewing, drawing, netball, Spanish and origami clubs.
Teacher Engagement: Morale among staff is high. Staff do not feel burdened with unnecessary work.
Impact on Student Progress: Teachers check pupils鈥� understanding, identify misconceptions, and provide sufficient time for pupils to practise, process and retain new learning.
Assessment of Teaching Quality: Subject leaders have strong knowledge of their specialist areas. They check regularly that the subject curriculums are being delivered as intended and offer staff helpful advice.
