Effective leadership ensures that good teaching enables pupils to reach above average levels of attainment. Their behaviour is outstanding. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly happy with the school.
A typical comment was: 'This is an exceptional school with a very high level of care and competence.' It is not outstanding because actions taken to raise achievement in mathematics are too recent to show improvement over a sustained period. All groups of pupils, including disabled pupils and those with special educational needs, make good progress in all subjects.
The trend in attainment has been above average for many years, although better in English than in mat...hematics. In 2011, Year 6 pupils reached average attainment in spite of additional support provided by the school. Teachers have good subject knowledge and set a good pace of learning.
They adapt the activities well to meet the needs of all pupils and involve a Key Stage 3 consultant to help pupils to reach the higher levels. They mark pupils' work regularly and targets are used well, together with written comments to help pupils reach the next step in their learning. Pupils' behaviour and their attitudes to learning are outstanding.
They make an excellent contribution to keeping themselves and others really safe through school council initiatives and the older pupils helping the younger ones. Pupils say they feel extremely safe in school. Leaders share a vision of enabling all pupils to achieve their full potential academically while maintaining their excellent personal skills.
School performance is monitored closely and professional development provided for staff has ensured that the quality of teaching has improved, leading to greater achievement by pupils. The curriculum fully supports all aspects of pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
Information about the school
St Michael's C of E Primary School is an average-size primary school that is expanding to become a two-form entry school.
All pupils are taught in single-age classes. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic groups and the proportion who speak English as an additional language are similar to the national average. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals is lower than that found nationally.
The proportions of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs, including pupils who are supported at school action plus or have a statement of special educational needs, are similar to those found in most schools. The school meets the current government floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. The school manages a daily breakfast club, which is held in the nearby church hall.
