This is a good school. This school is good because leaders have ensured that teaching remained of high quality during a period of substantial staff change. Pupils' results and progress have improved over time.
Most pupils, including the most-able and those eligible for additional funding, make good progress from their starting points. Pupils currently in the school are working at much higher levels than those in previous years when results were below average. Teaching is consistently good across the school.
Teachers' dialogue with pupils is of high quality and promotes careful thinking and effective learning. Pupils take pride in their work and achievements. T...hey behave well and are considerate of others.
The school's work to keep pupils safe and secure is rigorous and highly effective. The headteacher and other leaders and governors are clear in their aims for the school. They ensure that all staff, including those new to the school, have the same high expectations of pupils' achievement and the quality of teaching as they do.
The school prepares pupils for life in modern Britain very well. Subjects are planned and taught in a way that enables pupils to explore and understand the importance of democracy and children's rights for themselves and others. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Too few of the most able pupils have attained results at the higher levels at the end of Key Stage 2.
Leaders do not check the impact of additional provision given to particular pupils rigorously enough to ensure that it remains effective.
