Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. Significant improvements made since the time of the last inspection mean that the school's overall effectiveness is now good. The school is led by a very competent headteacher and deputy headteacher.

They have a clear vision for excellence and are committed to make sure that every child has the best possible start to school life. Skilled and well-informed governors support and challenge leaders in equal measure. Pupils have positive attitudes to work and their good behaviour allows lessons to move along without interruption.

Pupils' behaviour around school is also good and they enjoy the many additional activities and clubs provided by t...he school. The school's work to keep pupils safe has improved and is now good. Pupils' attendance has also improved and they say, 'this is a much better school than before'.

The achievement of all groups of pupils has improved and the good progress they make is helping them to quickly catch up with work that was previously missed. Teaching is now consistently good and lessons are planned to engage pupils in a range of appropriately challenging activities, complemented by regular homework. The quality of teachers' marking has improved significantly and pupils respond quickly to what they are being asked to do to improve.

Children make good progress in the early years and the majority are well prepared to start Year 1. Those that are most able are challenged to achieve well and those who need more support respond quickly. It is not yet an outstanding school because : The quality of pupils' writing is let down by mistakes in spelling, punctuation and grammar.

A new way of teaching spelling, punctuation and grammar has only very recently been introduced. Leaders have set targets, and now need to keep a careful watch on how this new system is helping attainment to further rise.

Information about this school

This is a smaller than average-sized primary school.

The proportion of disadvantaged pupils who are eligible for support through the pupil premium is over twice the national average. The pupil premium is additional government funding provided for children who are looked after by the local authority and those known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is above average.

The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic groups or who speak English as an additional language is below average. Children in the Nursery class attend part-time and children in the Reception class attend full-time. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress in English and mathematics by the end of Year 6.

Since the time of the last inspection, a number of new teachers have been appointed and new governors elected. The school works in partnership with a group of local schools, The East Hull Collaborative Trust. The school occasionally has needed to provide off-site education at Oakfield (Supervised First Response Unit) School.
