Academy conversion letter

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.

Pupils' behaviour is always good and often outstanding. Pupils feel safe and happy at school. Assemblies and lessons are interesting and contribute well to pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.

The governing body works well with the headteacher. Together they have developed partnerships with other schools and planned... effectively for the future. Parents and carers like and appreciate the school.

It is not yet an outstanding school because : Pupils' skills in mathematics are not as strong as they are in literacy.
