This is a good school: Pupils achieve well and make good progress in their learning from Early Years Foundation Stage to the end of Key Stage 2.
Older pupils make very good progress in developing their skills in writing and mathematics. Good teaching and support ensure that pupils enjoy lessons and that all pupils are included. Lessons are planned which encourage pupils to use and apply their skills in reading, writing, communication and mathematics.
Pupils behave well in and around school and care for each other; their attendance is very good and they feel very safe in school. Good leadership in accurately assessing pupils' abilities and in setting individual... targets has resulted in good support for all pupils, for example, to help girls improve in mathematics. There is high morale among all the staff.
Governors know the school well and hold staff to account in their work, for example, when checking provision for children with special educational needs or disabilities. It is not yet an outstanding school because : The amount of teaching that is good or better is not yet high enough for the school to be outstanding. For example, not all teachers make full use of the school's marking policy to help pupils improve in their work.
As yet, the rate of pupils' progress is not yet rapid enough for the school to be outstanding. The regular checks on the quality of teaching by senior staff are not fully recorded so as to inform teachers how best to improve in order to make rapid improvements in their work.
