This is a good school Leadership and management are good. The headteacher has completely transformed the culture of the school since the previous inspection.
An unyielding drive to secure continued improvement has resulted in both improved pupils' progress and teaching. The headteacher's determined vision of maximum achievement for all is well supported by governors and senior leaders. Since the previous inspection, middle leadership has improved.
Middle leaders are increasingly confident and enthusiastic in fulfilling their roles. Nevertheless, there are still aspects of this role that require development. Teaching is good.
Lessons are well planned a...nd high expectations are evident. However, tasks set by teachers do not consistently help pupils to maximise their understanding. Pupils' progress since the last inspection has improved and is now good.
However, more work is still required to ensure that pupils gain even more depth in their knowledge and understanding. Governors provide robust challenge and support to senior leaders. They know the school well and monitor its work with vigour.
The school environment is attractive and supports learning well. Useful displays in classrooms help pupils to assess and improve their learning. Teachers check pupils' work regularly and help them to improve.
Pupils do not always use their targets well to support their learning. Pupils feel and are kept very safe. They have many opportunities to learn about potential dangers and how to avoid them.
They behave well, respect each other and are happy at school. The early years provision is good. Effective teaching and thorough monitoring of children's work ensure that they make good progress.
Pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities and disadvantaged pupils make good progress. Their learning needs are well recognised and well-tailored support is provided. The provision for pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and understanding British values is good.
Pupils are well prepared for life in modern Britain.
