School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. You and your leadership team and governors understand how well the school is doing and what needs to be done next. You provide clear direction and this provides a strong sense of purpose which motivates staff and pupils to achieve well. Parents and staff alike recognise the good quality of leadership in your school. During the previous inspection, many strengths were identified in your school: the good start that children make in the Reception class; the knowledge and commitment to improvement demonstrated by your governors; spiritual, moral, social and cultural education; and pupils’ behaviour. These remain strengths. You have worked hard to provide an interesting and broad curriculum. Provision for physical education, recognised by the award of the ‘Gold Games Mark’, is a particular strength. Pupils are very proud of achieving excellent results in a wide range of sports competitions. Pupils also benefit from specialist music provision. Thematic topics are well planned and provide opportunities for exciting learning. The school makes good use of outdoor learning. During the inspection, pupils linked their daily exercise session to science through a game which made the behaviour of molecules in solids, liquids and gasses very memorable. Year 6 made promotional environmental campaign videos and Year 5 worked with a professional drama group.
