Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school.

School leaders backed by a strong team of teachers and support staff have ensured that standards in English and mathematics are broadly average. Given pupils' lower starting points, this represents good achievement. Standards in reading are above average because phonics (the sounds that letters make) is taught exceptionally well in Reception and Key Stage 1 and the school fosters a love of reading.

Children get off to an excellent start because : the Early Years Foundation Stage benefits from excellent leadership and the teaching they receive is outstanding. Pupils' behaviour is outstanding. Pupils are keen to learn and are unreservedly ...polite and caring of one another.

Their behaviour in lessons and around the school is exemplary. Support staff who work with pupils in need of extra help are making an excellent contribution to raising standards. Excellent personal, spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is at the heart of the school's success and underpins all of the school's strengths.

The governing body holds the school robustly to account for its performance and its management of the finances. It is not yet an outstanding school because : The proportion of outstanding teaching across the school is not high enough and not enough pupils are achieving the highest levels. There are missed opportunities for pupils to reflect and act on their teachers' marking.

Pupils 'next steps' are not always matched to their abilities. In some lessons, the tasks do not always accelerate pupils' learning fast enough, particularly for the most-able pupils. Pupils' achievement in writing fluctuates and its quality is uneven in other subjects.

There are not enough opportunities for pupils to solve 'real-life' mathematical problems in other subjects or to lead on their own learning.
