What does the school do well and what does it need to do better?
Leaders have designed an ambitious curriculum for all pupils. The curriculum is well sequenced, starting in the early years and leading to what pupils need to know in Year 6.
Teachers use assessment effectively to check that pupils follow the curriculum securely.
Leaders have made reading a priority. In the early years, pupils get to know stories in depth.
They enjoy retelling them and expressing their own ideas. Pupils of all ages enjoy reading books together during their daily story time. Teachers read with expression and explain new vocabulary.
This engages pupils and extends their understanding of language.
Leaders have devised an effective early reading curriculum. Pupils learn phonics as soon as they start school.
They read books that match closely to the sounds they are learning. Leaders provide timely support to pupils who need it. Once pupils can read accurately, the curriculum continues to improve their reading fluency and confidence.
As a result, pupils gain a strong foundation for learning in other subjects.
In mathematics, leaders have planned carefully the knowledge and skills that pupils learn. For instance, pupils build on the understanding of number they acquire in the early years.
Teaching presents information clearly and ensures that pupils use mathematical vocabulary exactly. As a result of improvements to the mathematics curriculum, pupils now develop their mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills well.
The curriculum in other subjects develops pupils' understanding of important concepts.
For example, in history, pupils explain the reasons for invasions and when they have taken place. However, in the early years, the curriculum does not always identify precisely enough what pupils should learn. As a result, younger pupils do not acquire detailed enough knowledge to prepare them well for some aspects of Year 1.
Recent improvements have strengthened the support that is provided for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders identify pupils' needs accurately. Teachers then use this information to adapt the curriculum appropriately.
Consequently, pupils with SEND follow the curriculum well and with increasing independence.
The personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) curriculum gives pupils an understanding of healthy relationships appropriate to their age. However, some aspects of the wider personal development curriculum are not strong enough.
For example, the curriculum does not sufficiently guide pupils on how they should conduct themselves and cooperate with others. Consequently, some pupils do not show sufficient respect for others.
Staff are proud to work at the school.
They appreciate professional development and support from leaders. Local governors and trust leaders know the school's strengths and areas for development well. They provide useful support and challenge to school leaders.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
Pupils feel safe and learn how to keep safe, including when they are online. Leaders make appropriate and timely referrals to safeguarding partners.
They identify potential risks to pupils' safety and how to manage them. They secure external support for pupils who need it. Staff receive useful training to identify if pupils are at risk.
Policies and practice to manage harmful sexual behaviours are appropriate. Recruitment procedures ensure that staff are suitable to work with pupils. Staff know how to report safeguarding concerns about adults in the school.
What does the school need to do to improve?
(Information for the school and appropriate authority)
• The curriculum does not make a strong enough contribution to some aspects of pupils' personal development. Consequently, some pupils do not learn how to cooperate well or show sufficient respect to others. Leaders should plan and implement the personal development curriculum effectively so that all pupils understand the importance of cooperation and respect.
