This inspection rating relates to a predecessor school. When a school converts to an academy, is taken over or closes and reopens as a new school a formal link is created between the new school and the old school, by the Department for Education. Where the new school has not yet been inspected, we show the inspection history of the predecessor school, as we believe it still has significance.

Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
This is a good school The headteacher and her senior leadership team have set high expectations for the school and have implemented the changes needed to ensure that pupils achieve well. Consequently, standards throughout the school are improving. The quality of teaching has improved as a result of an effective programme of professional development provided by school leaders which they evaluate at each stage of implementation.
School leaders and teachers use assessment information increasingly well to drive further improvement in pupils' achievement. Most pupils now make good progress from their individual starting points. Pupils' behaviour is good and they have very p...ositive attitudes to their learning.
They enjoy the challenges set by their teachers and they strive to do their best. The curriculum provides a wide and varied range of learning opportunities within topics and themes that also develop pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding. There is a good choice of after-school clubs and activities.
The early years classrooms are lively and welcoming; activities are fun but have a clear focus for learning. Children in the early years enjoy a good start to their school experience and make rapid progress. Members of the governing body have skills that enable governors to provide a good level of support and challenge to school leaders.
Governors have an accurate view of the school's performance. It is not yet an outstanding school because : In a small minority of classes, some pupils' attainment is not rising quickly enough. Recent staffing changes have led to some disruptions to teaching.
As a result, the learning of some pupils has been inconsistent. The proportion of pupils who are persistently absent from school is above average. A minority of pupils who are disadvantaged or who have special educational needs and/or disabilities do not make as much progress as others.
Leaders and governors responsible for special educational needs do not monitor the effectiveness of additional support received by these pupils closely enough. Ofsted_Logo_Black_RGB
Information about this school
Brooklands Primary School is larger than the average-sized primary school. Most pupils are of White British heritage.
The proportions of pupils from minority ethnic groups and those who speak English as an additional language are below average. The proportion of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities, including those who have an education, health and care plan, is below average. The proportion of pupils eligible for support through the pupil premium, which is additional government funding to support pupils known to be eligible for free school meals or looked after by the local authority, is broadly average.
The school does not meet requirements on the publication of information about the impact of pupil premium funding for previous academic years on its website. Children attend the Nursery on a part-time basis. The school meets the current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress.
