Teaching has improved considerably and is very effective in promoting pupils' achievement. Teachers know their material well.
They make sure that all groups of pupils are motivated and inspired by their work, and so work hard. Pupils behave exceptionally well. The school is a calm and orderly community.
Pupils show great maturity and confidence in lessons. This allows very effective... learning to take place. The headteacher, other leaders and all staff share high ambitions for the pupils and have brought about major improvements in teaching and achievement since the last inspection.
The quality of teaching is checked closely, and weaker areas have been decisively tackled, accelerating the rate of improvement. Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is promoted exceptionally well. Links with a local school in very different circumstances, and with schools abroad, extend pupils' cultural horizons.
The school offers a wide range of out-of-school activities. It enjoys notable success in competitive sport and music. Pupils readily take on jobs and responsibilities to serve their school, and perform them very well.
The governing body is highly effective in promoting pupils' high achievement. Governors know the school exceptionally well and hold it to account for its performance.
Information about this school
The school is larger than most primary schools.
The large majority of pupils are White British. Very few are from other ethnic groups, and the proportion who speak English as an additional language is very small. The proportion of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium funding is well below average.
This is additional government funding, which in this school applies to pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and pupils in the care of the local authority. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is well below average.
The school became an academy on 1 November 2011. It is not part of any wider academy organisation. This inspection is the school's second since it became an academy.
The headteacher, deputy headteacher and one assistant headteacher were newly in post at the time of the previous inspection. The other assistant headteacher has been appointed since then, and 50% of the teaching staff have also taken up their posts since that time. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics.
