The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You lead a highly effective leadership team. Each member is astute and has an accurate assessment of the school’s performance. Your checks on teaching are of central importance at Wellesley Primary School. These checks form part of a thorough monitoring process which improves outcomes for pupils, as well as improving the quality of teaching, learning and assessment. Leaders have high expectations and use meticulous analysis to inform every decision. Once leaders have identified an area for improvement, they tackle this head on and evaluate the impact of their actions. The system is now established and leaders use this well to tackle previous weaknesses. As a result, leaders’ timely interventions ensure that outcomes for pupils continue to improve. Governors share your thorough understanding of the school and speak knowledgeably about the school’s strengths and areas for development. They act strategically to improve the school and do so with a full arsenal of information. Governors are not complacent. They have sought support from the local authority and have also ensured that they have access to suitable training. As a result, governors are holding leaders to account effectively. You have an incredibly detailed and comprehensive view of the school. You evaluate each area with accuracy and honesty. The interest of the pupil lies at the heart of the decisions you make. Behaviour across the school is positive and pupils demonstrate courtesy towards every member of the school. You have a positive relationship with parents and invite them in regularly to involve them in school life. When I visited, in excess of 20 parents attended the Year 2 lunch event. Staff are equally positive about the school, are immensely proud to be members of staff in your school and feel that leaders support them and take their well-being into account. This is a caring, nurturing learning environment. As a result, pupils, parents and staff are overwhelmingly positive about the school. At the beginning of the inspection, we agreed on the key lines of enquiry to consider during the day. These included establishing the effectiveness of actions taken to improve progress for the most able pupils in key stage 2, particularly in mathematics. We also explored how leaders are monitoring pupils’ progress in reading and mathematics and the impact of their work. We then considered whether attendance was improving for particular groups of pupils. We also considered the quality of support for pupils in key stage 1 who are working below the standard expected for their age and need to catch up with their peers. Finally, we considered whether safeguarding is effective. Safeguarding is effective. Members of the designated safeguarding team are aware of their responsibilities and carry these out meticulously. Pre-employment checks are in-depth and in accordance with statutory checks. Leaders ensure that staff know what to do if they have concerns about a pupil and detailed chronologies are in place. All members of staff are level 1 safeguarding trained and all receive regular training on the ‘Prevent’ duty and updates to the school’s own child protection policy. Those responsible for safeguarding across the school make timely referrals to external agencies and pass on any concerns that they may have. As a result, strong safeguarding practice is deep-rooted in recruitment procedures and across school life. Staff are well-trained and pupils are safe. Leaders and governors play a proactive role towards self-improvement. The school’s robust self-evaluation plays an integral role in achieving this. An audit into the effectiveness of safeguarding at Wellesley Primary School pinpointed the next steps and leaders acted swiftly. One necessary improvement was to promote e-safety across the school. Leaders set up a working party and established an action plan to address any shortcomings. As a result, leaders have successfully raised awareness of e-safety. Pupils feel safe in school and eloquently described how adults in the school promote a safe and caring environment. Pupils knew how to achieve safety online. They told me that ‘Digital Leaders’ play a vital role in highlighting the importance of this. Pupils also highlighted how behaviour across the school is a strength and how there are few instances of bullying in the school.
