School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You have led the school effectively and successfully through a period of change and challenge. Since the previous inspection, the school building has been extended and developed to accommodate an additional 150 pupils. The demographic of the school’s intake has changed to include significant numbers of disadvantaged pupils, a greater proportion of pupils who speak English as an additional language and many pupils from outside the catchment area due to the lack of school places elsewhere. An increase in pupil mobility has seen higher numbers of pupils join and leave the school at times other than are usual. Several new staff have joined the school each year as it has doubled in size. Strong, stable senior leadership has enabled the school to manage all these changes without losing the positive ethos and unique St Wilfrid’s ‘way of doing things’. The working partnership between senior leaders is very effective. It is mutually supportive and leaders are determined to provide the best education for all pupils. Together, you carefully reflect on outcomes and empower leaders at all levels to help drive the improvements necessary to ensure all pupils are appropriately challenged and supported. Following a dip in outcomes at the end of key stage 2 in 2017, you took action to do things differently rather than continue with what you have always done. New initiatives were introduced to improve the teaching of reading, writing and mathematics. As a result, outcomes in 2018 improved and were much closer to national averages.
