School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You have continued to develop a team of skilled leaders and teachers who are effective in promoting pupils’ progress. Since the previous inspection, you have begun to extend the size of the school. There are now two classes in the Reception Year. Despite the challenges of expansion and an extensive new build on site, you have maintained a clear focus on continuing to raise standards. Overall standards at the end of key stage 2 have risen securely over the past three years and are now in line with the national average. At the time of the previous inspection, you were asked to involve staff more in understanding the school’s drive for progress and to sharpen the school improvement plan. The staff’s highly positive response in their survey shows their good morale and understanding of what the school is planning to achieve. You have ensured that steps taken to improve the quality of teaching have been fully understood. Consequently, during the inspection it was evident that teachers are confident in using the school’s new approaches to teaching, for example in mathematics. The teaching of reading and mathematics is now demonstrating the increased challenge which you were asked to promote. The school improvement plan is clear in its intentions and regularly monitored by governors. You have set ambitious targets for pupils’ attainment, but the improvement plan does not show how actions will be measured for their impact on teaching or achievement.
