Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
This is a good school.
Achievement is now good. Consistently good teaching is enabling pupils to do increasingly well and make at least good progress in all classes. Since the last inspection, pupils' attainment has risen.
By the end of Year 6, standards in reading, writing and mathematics are now at least in line with the national average. Disabled pupils and those with special educational needs make good and sometimes outstanding progress from their different starting points. Gaps in attainment between disadvantaged pupils and others in the school have narrowed.
Early years provision is good. Children settle quickly and develop very positive attitud...es to learning, which they continue to show as they move up the school. Pupils are proud of their school.
They feel safe and behave well in lessons and around school. Relationships with each other and staff are good. Parents hold very positive views of the school and the care it provides for their children.
The headteachers are highly ambitious for the school. They are well supported by the deputy headteacher, staff and effective governing body. All leaders, including governors, have an accurate understanding of the school's performance.
Actions taken by leaders have successfully improved the quality of teaching and raised pupils' achievement. . Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is strong and greatly supports the friendly, purposeful ethos of the school.
Pupils work extremely well collaboratively. Attendance has improved to above average. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Achievement is not yet outstanding.
Some pupils, particularly the most able, are capable of reaching even higher levels than they do now. Pupils do not always have time to act on the guidance given in marking and, at times, some are capable of producing more work when they are working independently. Priorities in school plans are accurate but targets and timescales are not sharp enough to allow leaders to check how well actions are bringing about improvements.
Checks on the impact of the primary sports funding are not yet fully in place.
Information about this school
The school is larger in size than most other primary schools and the number of pupils on roll has risen since the last inspection. The early years comprises of two Reception classes.
Pupils in Key Stages 1 and 2 are taught in mixed-age classes. Most pupils are White British. Very few pupils are at an early stage of learning to speak English as an additional language.
The proportion of pupils supported through school action is below average. An above average proportion of pupils are supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils who are therefore eligible for support through pupil premium funding is average.
This additional funding is provided for those pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and those children who are looked after by the local authority. In the year since the last inspection, the school has experienced significant staffing changes, including changes in senior leadership and a number of staff absences due to maternity leave. Since November 2013, the school has been led by a headteacher partnership.
Following a period of maternity leave the substantive headteacher returned to school on a part-time basis. She was joined by another headteacher appointed by the governors at that time who also works part of the week. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics.
Before-and after-school clubs and a pre-school are provided on site by private providers. These provisions are subject to separate inspections. The school has Eco School Green Flag status and holds the Enterprise award.
