School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education at the school since the last inspection. You have worked effectively with other school leaders to maintain a culture of high expectation alongside a caring and nurturing ethos. The school is characterised by the positive way in which pupils and staff engage with each other and with their learning. Pupils enjoy school and staff say that they are proud to work there. Those parents who I spoke to during this inspection, and the vast majority who responded to Parent View, believe that their children are taught well and make good progress at the school. Governance is effective. Governors provide good levels of support and challenge to senior leaders. They are knowledgeable about the school’s performance and understand well the community that it serves. Governors visit the school regularly to see for themselves how policies are put into practice. The school has a strong commitment to sport and the performing arts. Pupils have the opportunity to take part in a wide variety of clubs ranging from hockey to cookery. Staff run football teams for boys and girls, from the Reception Year to Year 6, and regularly have over 60 pupils participating in competitive sport at weekends. The school choir also performs regularly in the local community and all pupils are involved in an end-of-term production each year.
