Inspection report: Grange Primary, 25–26 June 2019 Page 8 of 10 Information about this inspection Inspectors observed learning in lessons across all year groups, including some jointly with the headteacher and senior leaders, and also made some short visits to classrooms. Inspectors observed pupils’ behaviour at breaktime and lunchtime. Inspectors listened to pupils read and looked at their work in books. Inspectors took account of the 35 responses and free-text comments on Parent View, Ofsted’s online questionnaire, and talked to parents and carers at the start and end of the school day. Inspectors considered the views of 30 staff who completed the staff questionnaire. Meetings were held with a group of pupils, the chair and two members of the board of governors, the school’s senior and middle leaders, and the interim multi-academy trust’s CEO. Inspectors looked at school documents, including the school’s self-evaluation and improvement plan; minutes of the governing body meetings; the school’s information on pupils’ progress; planning of work in different subjects; leaders’ monitoring of the quality of teaching and learning; and records relating to behaviour, attendance and the safeguarding of pupils.
