This inspection rating relates to a predecessor school. When a school converts to an academy, is taken over or closes and reopens as a new school a formal link is created between the new school and the old school, by the Department for Education. Where the new school has not yet been inspected, we show the inspection history of the predecessor school, as we believe it still has significance.

Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
This is a good school.
Pupils make good progress from their starting points and, in 2013, attainment at the end of Year 6 was well above national levels in reading, writing and mathematics. Teaching is good with a particular strength in the way teachers plan sessions suitable for individual pupils' different abilities. As a result, almost every pupil is making better than expected progress.
The quality of marking and oral feedback to pupils is of very high quality. Pupils eligible for pupil premium funding make better progress than their peers as a result of carefully tailored activities and accurate monitoring. The school collects high-quality data on pupils'... performance and uses it well to provide additional support where appropriate.
Pupils are enthusiastic learners. Behaviour is good. Where occasional incidents do occur they are resolved quickly.
Having been through a period of change and managed this well, leadership is ambitious, proactive and focussed closely on the needs of pupils. Leaders act quickly to secure improvement. Governors have recently reorganised their work following a review; an open approach to challenge and change is securing rapid improvement.
As an example of the increasingly high levels of expectation set throughout school, attendance, previously a concern, is now well above national levels. It is not yet an outstanding school because : There remains some variation in the quality of teaching with examples of sessions that Standards by the end of Year 2 are in line with the national figures..
Standards in reading have required improvement alongside some that was outstanding. Governance has reorganised recently and added specialist expertise to the group. This is relatively new and will need to be evaluated in the near future to see how well it is working.
traditionally lagged behind writing but there is evidence that this is now catching up rapidly. This variation is a result of inconsistent levels of expectation.
Information about this school
This school is smaller than the average-sized primary school.
Most pupils are White British. The proportion of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium is around twice the national average. This is additional government funding for pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals, those in local authority care, and those with a parent in the armed services.
There is a smaller than average proportion of pupils who have special educational needs, and this varies considerably between year groups. In some year groups one pupil represents 12% of the cohort whilst in others it is closer to 3%. This means variation between year groups needs careful interpretation.
Only a small number of pupils have statements of special educational needs. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. The school has recently appointed a permanent headteacher following a term with an executive headteacher from a neighbouring school.
