The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school. Since the last inspection there have been a number of changes to the staffing at the school. During this time, you have been resolute in your commitment to improving the quality of teaching and the standards that pupils achieve. You, and your governors, have taken swift and effective action to address the dip in writing results in 2016. You have built a strong leadership and a teaching team who all say that you support and challenge them to strengthen their leadership and improve their practice as teachers. Governors and parents strongly agree that your leadership is instrumental to improvements at the school. At the last inspection, the school was asked to strengthen the curriculum so that pupils’ personal interests and creative skills were a basis for increasing their progress. Evidence from this inspection shows that pupils are highly engaged and motivated in their learning because the curriculum is based on their interests and needs. Teachers skilfully ensure that curriculum coverage is consistently maintained. The needs of pupils, including those who have special educational needs and/or disabilities, are met well. The curriculum is linked strongly to the school’s unique location. For example, pupils in the key stage 1 and Reception class make good use of the local environment, such as engaging in treasure hunt activities to help them learn about time. Parents report that their children talk eagerly about their learning and that the ‘comprehensive and enlightening’ curriculum has enthused their children to take their interests outside of school.
