Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school Leaders, staff, governors and the trust are highly aspirational to achieve the very best outcomes for pupils.

There is a drive and determination to ensure that the school is the very best it can be. As a result, there has been rapid improvement. Staff value the professional development they receive and help each other to develop their practice.

Consequently, the quality of teaching and learning is at least good and some is outstanding. Most pupils make good progress and some make stronger progress. On occasion, the most able pupils are not sufficiently challenged, especially in key stage 1.

Attainment at the end of key stage 2 is... improving and is now closer to the national average. Governors and the trust know the school well and provide effective support and challenge. The curriculum is being developed effectively so that learning is deepened in all subjects.

Pupils have rich and worthwhile opportunities to broaden their experiences. The physical education (PE) and sport premium and pupil premium funding has been used effectively. However, leaders, including governors, do not evaluate the impact as precisely as they could.

Leaders have introduced new approaches to teaching and learning in reading, writing and mathematics so that pupils build knowledge, skills and understanding securely over time. On occasion, in some classes, these approaches are inconsistent, especially in mathematics. Pupils are developing their skills in reading well.

However, their love of reading is less well developed. The leadership, provision, practice and outcomes in early years are outstanding. Adults are highly effective in meeting children's needs so that children make exceptional progress.

Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They demonstrate strong attitudes to learning. They are proud of their achievements and value their education.

Parents and carers hold the school in the highest regard. They are highly appreciative of the support for their children and their community. The care and well-being of pupils are a priority.

Safeguarding is effective. The pastoral support for pupils and families is strong. The promotion of equality and diversity sits at the heart of the school.

The warm and inclusive ethos ensures that all are valued.
