What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
From the early years to Year 6, the curriculum flows seamlessly. The school has ensured that the sequence of learning is crystal clear. Staff know the key information that pupils should learn in each subject curriculum and when they should learn it.
Staff receive high-quality training that enables them to design curriculum content with expertise. This ensures that staff are fully equipped to design learning activities, which enable pupils to learn exceptionally well. Staff are adept at identifying any misconceptions swiftly.
They use the school's assessment information effectively to identify where pupils may have gaps in their knowledge. This enables staff to shape pupils' future learning. Pupils, including children in the early years, excel.
Over time, pupils develop a deep body of knowledge that interconnects between subjects.
The school has successfully promoted a love of reading. Children in the Nursery Year listen to engaging stories.
This helps to develop their communication and language skills well. Older pupils read widely and often. They chatted enthusiastically to the inspectors about their favourite genres and authors.
Children start learning the phonics curriculum as soon as they begin in the Reception class. They practise reading using books that are carefully matched to the sounds that they already know. Staff routinely check that pupils are keeping up with the pace of the phonics programme.
Pupils who do not learn as well as the school intends, are quickly identified and receive tailored support to help them to catch up quickly. As a result, most pupils become confident and fluent readers by the end of Year 2.

They support one another and value their friendships. Pupils' rates of attendance are high. They know that attending school regularly will help them to learn all that they can.

Pupils said that everyone is welcome in their school, regardless of any differences that they may have.
Pupils diligently carry out their roles of responsibility. These roles include being sports and reading ambassadors. 'Year 6 fixers' also carry out duties in assemblies and support younger pupils.
A wide range of extra-curricular clubs are on offer, such as chess, cricket and mindfulness. The school is immensely proud of the way that it nurtures pupils' talents and interests beyond the curriculum.
