This is an outstanding school School leaders and governors have had a remarkable degree of success in improving the school's overall effectiveness over the last three years. High quality teaching means that most pupils make rapid progress.
Teachers consistently plan lessons that engage pupils and provide the right level of challenge. As a result, pupils reach above average standards in English and mathematics by the time they leave the school. Pupils enjoy school enormously and they are very enthusiastic learners.
Their behaviour is excellent and they feel very safe from bullying. The executive headteacher, together with the headteacher and associate headteach...er of the primary school, provides exceptionally strong leadership. They have the support of all staff in driving improvements and raising standards.
Teachers readily share their successful methods with one another and benefit from a well-organised training programme that enables them to hone their skills. One teacher's comment summed up the general view: 'There is a relentless focus on moving forward, being reflective and assessing the impact of all we do. We are all valued partners in this and share the same vision.'
The governing body provides highly effective support. They keep a sharp eye on how well pupils are doing. The leadership team provides governors with detailed accounts of the school's performance.
Governors use their considerable skills to evaluate this information and to use it for planning the future direction of the school.
Information about this school
The school is smaller than the average-sized primary school. Almost all pupils are White British.
A very few pupils speak English as an additional language The proportion of pupils in receipt of the pupil premium, which is additional government funding for looked after children, children of service families and pupils known to be eligible for free school meals, is below average. Currently, there are no looked after children or children of service families in the school. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is below average, as is the proportion supported through school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs.
These needs relate mainly to moderate learning difficulties. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress In September 2012, the school became federated with the The Downs School, a nearby secondary school. A new governing body was established, including members of the two previous governing bodies.
The headteacher of the secondary school became the executive headteacher of both schools. In addition, a headteacher and associate headteacher were appointed to lead the primary school. All three had been providing support for the school over the previous three years.
