Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school The headteacher, along with the senior leaders and governors, are ambitious for the school and its pupils. They know their school well as shown in their accurate self-evaluation.

They have a clear vision for the school's further improvement. The curriculum is interesting and varied, pupils are taught to use the skills they learn in mathematics and English across other areas of the curriculum. Pupils particularly enjoy the range of extra-curricular activities, including trips, visitors and after-school clubs.

Safeguarding is effective. Pupils know how to keep themselves safe. Adults listen to any concerns that they may have and take approp...riate action to get families the help they need.

Children in Reception are given a good start to their education. They settle well and make strong progress. They are well prepared for the challenges of Year 1.

Pupils and families are known individually, because of this the school provides timely and effective care and support, especially for those pupils who are the most vulnerable. Pupils are very caring and supportive of one another and bullying is rare. They behave well, working and playing politely together.

A few, particularly boys, can become easily distracted in lessons, however, and this hinders their progress at times. Parents are positive about the school. The vast majority of parents and carers are clear that pupils feel happy and safe.

Some feel that leaders could deal with their concerns more swiftly. Pupils' progress in key stage 1 is strong. In key stage 2 some pupils do not have enough opportunities to deepen their learning and reach the highest standard in mathematics.
