School Description

The school is much larger than the average primary school. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds is well above average, as is the proportion who speak English as an additional language. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities is well above average, but the proportion who have a statement of special educational needs or an education, health and care plan is average. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for additional funding through the pupil premium is well above the national average. The school provides full-time provision for 46 children of nursery age, and 31 children attend part time across the three nurseries. The school runs a breakfast club and after-school clubs. At the start of the inspection, the school did not meet requirements on the publication of information on its website about safeguarding, recent examination results, the pupil premium grant and the physical education and sport premium funding. By the time the Inspection report: Hungerford Primary School and Children’s Centre, 29 November 2016 Page 9 of 12 inspection had concluded, these omissions had been rectified. The school met the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6. For f Inspection report: Hungerford Primary School and Children’s Centre, 29 November 2016 Page 10 of 12 Information about this inspection Inspectors observed a range of learning activities, including 16 part lessons, of which six observations were carried out jointly with senior leaders. The inspectors also made a number of short visits to lessons throughout the inspection. Meetings were held with: the headteacher and other senior leaders, including the designated safeguarding lead; newly qualified teachers; support staff; the chair of the governing body; and a representative from the local authority. A telephone conversation was held with the school improvement adviser. On the first day of the inspection, the lead inspector held several discussions with a few staff to ascertain their understanding about safeguarding. Discussions were held with two groups of pupils, and the inspectors listened to three groups of pupils read. Inspectors took into consideration the 13 responses to the online questionnaire, Parent View, and free text responses received during the inspection. The inspection team also met with parents when they were dropping off their children at school. The inspection team observed the school’s work and scrutinised a number of documents, including: the school’s self-evaluation and development plan; records of data on pupil’s performance; and records relating to behaviour, attendance and safeguarding. Inspectors also analysed minutes of governors’ meetings, monitoring records of the school’s work to assess the school’s effectiveness, and pupils’ work from the previous academic year to the current time. The inspection, planned for one day, was converted to a full section 5 inspection. This inspection was conducted over an additional two days with a full inspection team in order to collect additional evidence on the school’s work. The children’s centre, which the school manages, was not included in the inspection. Two of Her Majesty’s Inspectors visited the school on 1 March 2017 to complete the inspection. They scrutinised information about pupils’ progress and visited lessons. They looked at pupils’ work in a range of different subjects, including English and mathematics. They met with leaders and a group of staff. They also observed pupils in the playground and spoke to them informally about their experiences at school. In addition, they scrutinised documentation about safeguarding and spoke to leaders, staff and pupils about this aspect of the school’s work. The lead inspector held a telephone conversation with a representative of the local authority.
