This is a good school. Pupils make good progress to reach above average levels in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 2.
Teaching is good. Exciting activities are well planned and matched closely to pupils' needs. Disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs make good progress because the school caters extremely well for them.
Pupils behave well. They enjoy school, try hard and want to do well. They feel safe in school and help each other at playtime and in lessons.
Good leadership from the headteacher, senior leaders and the governing body has ensured that the school continues to improve. Leaders and governors keep a c...lose focus on pupils' progress and teaching, which has ensured that all pupils do well. Relationships throughout the school are very positive and pupils' personal skills are well developed.
Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is a strength of the school. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Recent improvements that have been made to the teaching of reading and writing have not ensured that attainment in these subjects is as good as in mathematics. Pupils' understanding of letters and the sounds they make is not yet high enough.
Teachers do not always make clear to pupils how to improve their work.
Information about this school
This is a much smaller than average-sized infant school. There are four classes in the morning, one for Reception, two for Year 1 and one for Year 2.
In the afternoon, there is one class for each year group. Almost all pupils are of White British heritage and a very small proportion speak English as an additional language. Almost all pupils who join in the Reception class continue their education at the school until they leave at the end of Year 2.
The percentage of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium (additional government funding for particular groups, in this case those known to be eligible for free school meals) is above average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported at school action is average. The percentage who have a statement of special educational needs, or who are supported at school action plus, is below average.
