School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. At the last inspection, you were asked to challenge pupils to achieve their full potential. Leaders, including governors, share your ambition and commitment to ensuring that pupils achieve their best. Your rigorous evaluations of the school’s effectiveness help you to identify accurately the major priorities needed to improve the school and to take appropriate action. You work closely with other leaders in the Emmanuel collaboration of schools and have purchased additional teaching resources. This is helping you to improve teaching. For example, teachers now routinely ensure that pupils practise and consolidate their skills in mathematics and apply them when solving problems. Consequently, pupils’ progress in mathematics is improving. Teachers’ understanding of how to promote greater depth in pupils’ learning is also increasing. As a result of good teaching over time, the proportion of pupils who achieve standards typical for their age at the end of each key stage is often above that of pupils nationally. However, historically, few pupils achieve greater depth in their learning. In 2018, improvements to teaching in all subjects led to an increase in the proportion of pupils achieving greater depth in their learning in Year 2 and Year 6. Reviews of current pupils’ work reveal that effective teaching enables pupils to achieve standards appropriate for their age. However, too few pupils are sufficiently challenged to develop greater depth in their learning.
