This is an outstanding school. Pupils make outstanding progress in all classes across the school.
They reach standards at the end of Key Stage 2 which are consistently well above average in reading, writing and mathematics. The most able pupils make particularly strong progress, especially in mathematics, because : of the very challenging work they are given. The quality of teaching is outstanding.
Teachers have very high expectations, plan their lessons thoroughly and make it very clear to pupils exactly what is expected of them. Well-qualified and very skilful teaching assistants provide valuable support in lessons, so that all pupils can make excellent prog...ress. Pupils are very happy at this school, which they describe as, 'like a massive family'.
They love learning and work extremely hard. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They are extremely polite and welcoming.
As one parent commented, 'Breck children have manners.' Pupils feel very safe in school. Adults respect and value the pupils, and they, in turn, trust and respect adults.
The school continues to go from strength to strength under the strong and aspirational leadership of the new headteacher. She is very well supported by other senior leaders. They have made sure that achievement and teaching have continued to improve.
There is tremendous teamwork among the staff. Senior and middle leaders, teachers and support staff, are equally determined that all pupils will do as well as they possibly can. There are very well-established systems for checking on the performance of all staff.
However, when leaders carry out checks on the quality of teaching, they do not always set precise targets for teachers, in order to help them to improve their teaching even further. Members of the governing body have an excellent understanding of the school. They support the school and rigorously hold it to account.
