What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
Leaders have high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
Together with staff, they have created a curriculum that is ambitious and designed well. However, in a small number of subjects, sequences of learning are not ordered well. Pupils do not build on what they already know.
This slows the progress that pupils make in some areas of the curriculum.
Leaders promote a love of reading. Staff ensure that pupils read a diverse range of texts.
Staff use the training they receive to enable them to teach phonics well. This starts in the early years. Children use their phonics knowledge to confidently play phonics games.
Pupils enjoy listening to stories that adults read to them. Pupils read books that are well matched to the sounds they are learning. If pupils fall behind, they receive the support they need to help them to catch up quickly.
This helps them to become confident and fluent readers.
The mathematics curriculum starts in the early years. Children develop their understanding of early number well.
Teachers skilfully adapt learning to meet pupils' needs. They ensure that pupils practise their mathematical skills. They check pupils' understanding before they move on to more complex learning.
Pupils build on this as they move through the school. They quickly recall times tables facts and use their knowledge of number well to solve mathematical problems.
Leaders are ambitious for what pupils with SEND can achieve.
These pupils take an active role in the life of the school. Staff know the pupils well. They use this knowledge to ensure that pupils receive the support they need to access the same curriculum as their peers.
This is particularly the case for pupils with social and emotional needs.
Pupils display positive attitudes towards learning. Low-level disruption is rare.
In early years, children are eager to accept and meet challenges. They confidently share their learning and sustain their concentration well, both in and outside the classroom. Leaders have high expectations for pupils' attendance.
Pupils attend well because of this.
Leaders ensure that pupils' wider personal development is well planned. Pupils know how to stay physically and mentally healthy.
They understand what discrimination is and why it is important to include everyone. Pupils talk confidently about democracy and tolerance but are less confident when discussing individual liberty.
Governors have an accurate view of the school's strengths and what needs to improve.
Together with leaders, they have focused on staff well-being. This has strengthened the staff team. Staff feel well supported and valued by leaders.
They appreciate the consideration that leaders give to managing their well-being and workload.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
Leaders provide staff with up-to-date safeguarding training.
This enables staff to identify and report any concerns quickly. Leaders work closely with outside agencies to ensure that pupils and their families receive the support and help they need. They make the appropriate checks during recruitment.
However, safeguarding training for a small number of governors is not up to date.
Pupils know how to identify risks and keep themselves safe. They understand the importance of consent and sharing any worries they might have with a trusted adult.
What does the school need to do to improve?
(Information for the school and appropriate authority)
• In some subjects, leaders have not mapped out the precise sequence of knowledge that pupils should learn and remember. As a result, pupils do not build on previous knowledge that enables them to know more and remember more over time. Leaders should ensure that the essential knowledge that pupils need to know and remember in each subject is clear and carefully set out.
