Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school School leaders have created a caring and nurturing atmosphere that is appreciated by parents and pupils.

It is an improving school and senior leaders have led improvements to the quality of teaching, learning and assessment since the previous inspection. The broad and stimulating curriculum has had a positive impact on pupils' strong spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. Children get off to a good start in the early years and make good progress.

Governors know the school well and constantly challenge leaders to strive for the best possible outcomes for their pupils. Senior leaders provide effective training to ensure that tea...ching is of good quality. Pupils are well behaved and considerate of others.

They know how to keep themselves safe, for example when using the internet. Teachers do not use the school's marking and feedback policy consistently to enable pupils to understand the next steps in their learning. Most-able pupils in lower key stage 2, including those who are disadvantaged, do not make as much progress as they could because teachers do not consistently stretch or improve their skills and knowledge.
