The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. Since you took up your post as headteacher, you have engendered a strong sense of teamwork across the school. Staff speak highly of your leadership. They know that you value and consider their views. They appreciate the messages of support and encouragement you share with them. You, your staff and governors are very proud to serve the diverse community from which pupils come, and go to great lengths to make everyone feel welcome. Governors have ensured that the governing body is representative of the range of cultures and families that make up the school community. Parents and carers told me, ‘The staff get us involved in our child’s school life,’ and pupils said, ‘This school treats everyone the same.’ At the time of the last inspection, you were asked to make sure that staff provide pupils with work that is well matched to their ability and to enable pupils to extend their skills when they work on their own. Since then, you and your staff have raised your expectations of what pupils can do. As we visited the classes, we saw that teachers and teaching assistants use resources well to enable pupils to work independently or in small groups. Adults use their strong subject knowledge to provide pupils with clear explanations so that pupils can grasp new ideas. Pupils’ books show that teachers provide pupils with additional challenges, particularly in mathematics. We noticed, however, that sometimes teachers do not plan carefully enough the additional challenges they provide to extend pupils’ learning. In some instances, the additional challenge is just too easy for some pupils.
