Main findings

All Saints' is a good school. Attainment is improving rapidly and pupils thoroughly enjoy themselves.

One parent commented, 'My child is very happy at school, and talks about what she has been learning with enthusiasm. She has been educating me!'. All pupils, whether girls, boys, White British pupils or those who do not speak English as their first language, make equally good progress.

The more able pupils and those who have special educational needs and/or disabilities make just as good progress as their classmates. Children get off to a very good start in the Early Years Foundation Stage. By the time they leave Year 6, pupils' attainment is above average in mathematics and high in English.<...br/>
Achievement in science is not as consistently good and attainment is broadly average. Currently, learning in science is not being monitored as closely as in English or mathematics. The school is starting to devise ways to place more emphasis on science in the timetable and to create interesting links with other subjects.

The headteacher is justifiably held in high esteem by pupils, parents, carers and staff. Clearly, she has been instrumental in establishing a high-calibre senior leadership team to accurately identify development areas, drive improvement and consolidate the school's many strengths. Self-evaluation is very good.

The governing body knows the school well and contributes positively to strategic direction. All this bodes well for continued improvement. The quality of teaching is good and is a major factor behind pupils' improving achievement.

Of particular note is the excellent teamwork between teachers and teaching assistants. Activities in lessons invariably captivate the pupils, as in an excellent mathematics lesson when pupils used boxes of different shapes brought from home to learn about cubes, cuboids and cylinders. Marking is regular and encouraging, but teachers do not always ensure pupils follow up useful suggestions to consolidate their learning.

In one class, pupils have very effective personal passports for learning, complete with their photos, to remind them how to improve their writing or number skills in all lessons. However, in other classes, pupils are not all sufficiently clear how to advance these skills beyond the confines of literacy or numeracy lessons. Pupils feel extremely safe in school and their behaviour is exemplary.

In lessons, pupils work very productively in pairs or groups and listen well to their teachers. Out at play they are active and get plenty of exercise, but also keep a careful eye out for their less physically able classmates. The spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of the pupils is good.

A strong Christian ethos provides an excellent foundation for spirituality and deeper thought. Pupils enjoy finding out more about the backgrounds of each other and are growing in knowledge of other faiths and cultures.

Information about the school

All Saints' is a one-form-entry Church of England school.

The pupils come from a wide range of religious backgrounds. Just under two thirds of pupils are from minority ethnic groups. Over a third of pupils speak English as an additional language; this is well above the national average.

More pupils than average are known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities is higher than in most primary schools. The predominant needs relate to moderate learning difficulties and behavioural needs.

A few pupils have specific learning needs. In the Early Years Foundation Stage, children attend Nursery part-time either in the morning or afternoon. The school holds the London Schools Environment Award and the Artsmark amongst several other awards.
