The view of one parent, that 'we cannot praise this school, its teachers and in particular its headteacher highly enough' is echoed time and again by others. All aspects of the schools work are outstanding. Pupils have achieved high attainment at the end of Key Stage 2 for each of the last 5 years, reflecting outstanding progress from their starting points on entry to the school.
Sustained high attainment is the outcome of outstanding teaching, the rigorous use of assessment data, and to the highly effective management of additional support. Teachers make learning interesting and enjoyable. Activities are challenging and thought-provoking.
The school env...ironment is vibrant. Teachers' expectations are mirrored in pupils' work. Everything is of the highest quality, including the presentation of pupils' work, which is exemplary.
Pupils' behaviour is also exemplary. It reflects their very strong moral and social development. In lessons, pupils' attitudes and their ability to work with each other contribute significantly to their learning.
Underpinning this excellent provision are outstanding leadership and management. The leadership of teaching is outstanding and the management of performance is rigorous. The headteacher's very high expectations are fully endorsed by the governing body, and shared by her deputy and by all other staff.
The breadth and balance of the outstanding curriculum is demonstrated exceptionally well through displays in classrooms. The school's emphasis on developing pupils' awareness of different countries and cultures is reflected in pupils' art and written work and strongly supports their spiritual and cultural development.
Information about the school
The school is smaller than most other primary schools, and draws pupils from the Park Farm district in Peterborough.
Most pupils are White British. About a third are from a range of other ethnic backgrounds, mainly Other White or Black African backgrounds. The proportion of pupils who have English as an additional language is just below the national average.
Fewer pupils than average are known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs is below average, although the proportion with a statement of special educational need is above average. The Asgard before- and after-school club is run on the school site and managed by the governing body.
The school meets the government's current floor standards, the minimum expectation of progress and attainment for pupils at the end of Year 6. It has achieved a number of awards, including the recently accredited Inclusion Quality Mark, the Basic Skills Quality Mark; Artsmark Gold and the Healthy Schools Award. The school currently holds the International Award at intermediate level and is about to be assessed for the full award.
