This is an outstanding school. All pupils, including those eligible for pupil premium funding and pupils who are disabled or have special educational needs, make outstanding progress. Achievement in all year groups is outstanding, and pupils leave Year 6 with well above average levels of attainment.
The outstanding teaching is notable for teachers' very high expectations of what pupils can achieve, and teachers' skill in setting tasks for pupils which are well suited to their varying abilities. Behaviour and pupils' attitudes towards learning are outstanding. Attendance is well above average and pupils love coming to school.
They feel very safe, love taking on... responsibility and enjoy the wide range of activities both in and outside of lessons. There is outstanding support for potentially vulnerable pupils, who steadily grow in confidence and other personal qualities as well as making excellent academic progress. The school ensures that every pupil has the opportunity to succeed in all the activities offered.
Leadership and management are outstanding. Leaders at all levels check the quality of teaching and progress rigorously. The leadership, strongly supported by governors, has the full backing of staff and has created a culture which promotes excellence and a commitment to continued improvement.
The school is very outgoing, as seen in its links with other local schools and its commitment to strengthening pupils' global awareness through links elsewhere, including those with schools in distant countries. Parents are strongly supportive of the school and greatly value all aspects of its provision.
Information about this school
Elburton Primary School converted to become an academy school on 1 July 2012.
When its predecessor school, Elburton Primary School, was last inspected by Ofsted, it was judged to be outstanding. The school is much larger than the average-sized primary school. The great majority of pupils are of White British heritage.
The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium, which is additional funding provided by the government for children in local authority care, pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and other groups, is less than half the national average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs supported by school action and the proportion supported by school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs are both below average. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for attainment and progress.
There are two classes in Reception (Early Years Foundation Stage) and in each of all the other year groups in the school. The school holds several awards, including the International Schools award. The school operates before-school and after-school clubs.
