The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You were appointed in May 2015, following a period of unsettled leadership at the school. You have made significant improvements to many areas of the school’s work since then. Strongly supported by your deputy headteacher, you have established a calm, positive atmosphere in the school. You model good relationships and a deep commitment to teachers’ professional learning. Teachers have developed their skills quickly in this environment, and so their effectiveness has increased. Staff morale is high. Pupils thoroughly enjoy being at school. You have developed a curriculum which gives pupils real-life experiences. For example, pupils recently researched the history of soldiers from the village who fought in the First World War. Pupils subsequently hosted a tour of the village based on their research. Pupils are learning well. They talk enthusiastically about their work. Children in the early years and pupils in key stage 1 make a positive start to school life as a result of well-organised and effective teaching. Key stage 2 pupils make good progress from their starting points in reading, writing and mathematics. You have been particularly effective in improving the identification and support of pupils who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities. This is helping these pupils overcome their individual difficulties.
