Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is an outstanding school. The headteacher is held in high esteem by parents and pupils.

Her enthusiasm and very clear vision inspires all members of staff who continually search for ways in which they can improve their teaching. Governors keep staff on their toes through constructively challenging their performance and ensuring that there is no complacency. The headteacher and governors know the school well.

This has enabled them to sustain and build on the outstanding qualities identified at the last inspection. Much teaching is of a high quality that inspires the pupils and results in their rapid progress and high attainment in reading, writing and math...ematics. The pupils' curiosity is nurtured at every opportunity.

They love learning and strive to fulfil the school's aims of 'perseverance, reflection, co-operation and resourcefulness'. Learning is brought to life for pupils through the very creative way in which subjects are taught and the wide variety of interesting activities they experience. They are fascinated about the world around them by the exciting use made of the school grounds.

Many activities help the pupils to understand they are part of a global society and to support their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. Through these they are sharply aware of diversity and the customs and cultures of others. The pupils' behaviour is exemplary and they greatly enjoy all aspects of their school life.

They are very kind, considerate towards each other, very polite and well mannered. Parents appreciate the way governors and staff take great care to ensure the welfare of their children. Pupils feel safe and are taught how to stay safe and how to look after themselves and each other.

Children have an exciting start to their schooling in the Nursery and Reception classes, although outdoor learning in Reception is not as effective as in the Nursery. The rapid progress of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs reflects the strong and successful commitment to ensuring equality of opportunity. The school works very closely with parents so that they are genuine partners in the education of their children.

Information about this school
