Pupils enjoy school and achieve well. Children enter Reception with skills and knowledge broadly typical of those expected for their age. They make good progress and begin Year 1 with good levels of development.
Pupils make good progress in Years 3 and 4 in reading, writing and mathematics. Standards are better than those typically found by the end of Year 4, and pupils are exceptionally well prepared for the middle-school stage of their education. Teaching is consistently good and the curriculum provides an outstanding range of interesting experiences to support pupils' learning and development.
Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. ...They always do their best, help one another and feel very safe and well cared for. Staff know the pupils well and use accurate assessments of their attainment to cater effectively for all individual needs.
The school feels like a happy extended family which strongly supports the pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. The headteacher leads the school well. Together with senior staff and strongly supported by governors, she makes sure that teaching is at least good.
Any underperformance is tackled effectively but sensitively. Governors provide good support to the headteacher. They keep themselves well-informed of pupils' progress and rigorously hold the school to account for the standards achieved.
Parents are highly supportive of the school, as reflected in an exceptionally positive response to the Ofsted Parent View questionnaire and comments made to the inspector during the inspection. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Teachers' questioning in lessons is not always purposeful enough to ensure that all pupils, including the most able, are challenged and made to think hard. Some school improvement measures lack clarity of purpose and leaders cannot, therefore, be sure how effective their actions have been.
