Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school.

Pupils, including disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs, achieve well. Progress in reading, writing and mathematics is good and attainment at age 11 is consistently above average. The attainment of pupils entitled to support under the pupil premium (mainly those entitled to free school meals) is above that of all pupils nationally.

Behaviour and safety over time are outstanding. The school is a harmonious community. Pupils are polite and courteous and have a very strong understanding of how to stay safe.

The school provides extremely good support for pupils whose circumstances make them vulnerable. A very ...large majority of teaching and learning is good and improving rapidly because : realistic and challenging targets are set for teachers. Teaching in Years 5 and 6 is outstanding.

The provision for pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is outstanding. The strong leadership and management, including that of the effective governing body, is driving school improvement. Thorough and effective monitoring of teaching identifies strengths and areas for improvement that form the basis for school improvement planning.

As a result, strengths are maintained and improvement is continuing. Links with parents and carers are excellent. It is not yet an outstanding school because: Teaching has not been consistently good enough to challenge more-able pupils in Years 1 and 2 or ensure a brisk pace to learning.

As a result attainment at age seven has not improved rapidly, especially in reading, because too few pupils have been attaining the higher Level 3 The independent learning skills of pupils in Reception and Years 1 and 2 are not strong enough to improve progress further. Systems for analysing data do not provide easily accessible information to compare school performance with other schools nationally.
