This is a good school Leaders and governors have developed an ambitious culture for school improvement. The governing body has undergone change.
Recruitment and training ensure that governors both challenge and support leaders effectively. Leaders ensure that pupils have access to a broad and balanced curriculum. Pupils enjoy a wide range of experiences both during school time and through out-of-school activities.
Ongoing training has enabled leaders and staff to sharpen their teaching skills, rewrite the curriculum and to develop new assessment systems. Teachers use assessments increasingly well to identify and address gaps in pupils' learning. However, there... are still more opportunities to bridge gaps further and consolidate pupils' learning so that they make more rapid progress.
Interesting lessons capture pupils' curiosity, giving them the opportunity to apply new knowledge and skills. As a result, pupils enjoy their learning and achieve well. Behaviour is good.
Pupils have positive attitudes to learning. They are proud of their achievements and of their school. Pupils are cared for and supported effectively.
Robust systems are in place to ensure that pupils are kept safe. Most parents value the wide range of opportunities that the school offers to pupils. They are pleased with the progress that their children make and the frequency and clarity of communication between home and school.
Effective support for pupils who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities enables them to make good progress. Most disadvantaged pupils make good progress. In some classes, they make better progress than other pupils.
Leaders develop pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding well through a rich and balanced curriculum. Pupils are well prepared for life in modern Britain. There are many opportunities for pupils to be involved with local community events, such as the Garston local history project.
In the early years, children are taught effectively. Provision is good and continues to improve rapidly. The actions taken by leaders have improved attendance, which is now better than the national average.
However, a small number of the pupils are still regularly absent from school. At times, teachers do not stretch and challenge pupils, particularly the most able pupils. Too few of them attain above the standards expected for their ages.
