They have the trust and confidence of parents, carers and the local community to lead the school in improving further. Leaders know the school well and have ensured that good teaching is leading to strong progress.
Outcomes in reading, writing and mathematics are good overall; however, too few pupils achieve higher standards. The culture of self-evaluation results in constant improvement. Governors are becoming increasingly systematic when reviewing the effectiveness of the school.
However, governors are aware of the need for more rigour. Phoni...cs is taught systematically and, as a result, pupils make strong progress in learning their sounds. Pupils apply this knowledge to good effect in their reading.

Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is woven into the curriculum, and is promoted successfully. Children have a good start in early years, with a wide selection of stimulating activities. Leaders are aware that more children need to achieve higher standards.
