Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school The headteacher provides strong leadership. Her determination to provide pupils with the best possible education has led to significant improvements across the school.

The headteacher's drive to improve the quality of teaching has been highly successful. Teachers value the opportunities they have to share and develop their teaching skills. The quality of teaching has improved considerably over the last year.

Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported very well in the specialist group provision. This helps them to make good progress academically and socially. However, the support that pupils with SEND re...ceive within class is less effective and does not help them to make sufficient progress.

Pupils have opportunities to learn about a range of subjects through interesting topics. However, their skills and knowledge in subjects other than English and mathematics are not developed well enough over time. This limits pupils' progress in some subjects.

Leaders check pupils' progress in English and mathematics. However, this information is not used carefully enough to spot which pupils are falling behind. Children in the early years are confident and independent learners.

Relationships with staff are excellent. However, on occasion, staff do not challenge the most able children sufficiently to extend their learning. Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development is exceptionally well developed.

All staff have pupils' welfare and safety as their highest priority. Pupils are polite and respectful. Their enjoyment of school is reflected in their high attendance rates.

Pupils' progress in reading and mathematics has improved over the last year. Some teachers' expectations of handwriting and presentation are too low. In addition, they do not ensure that pupils address their basic mistakes in grammar, punctuation and spelling.

Consequently, some pupils, especially the most able, do not make sufficient progress in writing. Middle leaders contribute well to the school's development. This has led to improvements in reading and mathematics over the last two years.

Governors contribute well to school improvement.
