Llandybie C.P. School is a caring and friendly learning community that promotes the importance of pupils’ good behaviour successfully. A notable element of provision is the way in which staff engage effectively through a number of daily activities to ensure pupils’ wellbeing, including their emotional wellbeing. Most pupils show positive attitudes to their work and make sound progress in their learning. By Year 6, they communicate confidently in Welsh and English with their peers and the school’s staff. Most read meaningfully and write in different styles and contexts successfully. Most pupils’ numeracy and digital skills are developing well and they apply them skilfully when engaging enthusiastically in class activities. Pupils have a strong voice in the school’s life and, through various groups, have a positive influence on the school’s provision and ethos. For example, the Criw Cymraeg works tirelessly to promote social use of the Welsh language. Most teachers plan interesting learning experiences that enable pupils to develop their skills appropriately. At the top of the school, the experiences that are planned provide challenge and stimulation, igniting pupils’ imagination and enabling them to develop a wide range of skills, including their creative skills, very effectively. However, there is room to share this good practice with teachers across the school to expand opportunities further for pupils to practise and apply their cross-curricular and creative skills within learning experiences. Although pupils are successful independent learners from an early age, there are not enough opportunities for them to make choices independently in relation to their learning. The headteacher and members of the senior team lead the school well and share a clear vision to provide education that supports pupils’ wellbeing and enables them to achieve high standards. Self-evaluation arrangements have been implemented effectively and practitioners and governors are part of the process of identifying strengths and developing specific areas for improvement. The expertise of members of the governing body is used purposefully and they have a strong knowledge of the school and support the staff effectively.
