Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. Ash Green Primary School is a happy, hard-working and inclusive school.

The school's core values are widely promoted and understood, leading to very strong relationships between staff and pupils. Pupils behave well and are safe. They are courteous and polite, and respectful of each other and adults.

Disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs make the same good progress as their peers. Teaching assistants provide skilful and effective support. The governing body now plays an effective role in supporting and challenging school leaders.

They bring a determination to their role to secure the school motto of 'Achiev...ing the best ...

Together'. The headteacher provides excellent leadership for the school. She has an accurate view of the school's performance and knows precisely what to do to move the school forward.

Leaders have high expectations of staff and pupils, and provide strong role models. They have secured important improvements in aspects of teaching and pupils' achievement in a very short space of time. The quality of early years education is good.

Children are enthusiastic and embrace the learning opportunities provided for them and make good progress. Teaching is good and sometimes outstanding. As a result, pupils make good progress and achieve well.

It is not yet an outstanding school because : The impact of teaching over time does not enable pupils to make consistently outstanding progress and demonstrate a love of learning and thirst to know more. Leaders have not shared well enough with parents the changes they have made to their systems for assessment and the approaches taken to embed the new national curriculum. The quality of marking across the school is variable and teachers do not always provide pupils with the most appropriate prompt for improvement.

Opportunities for pupils to develop and apply their skills across subjects are limited.

The early years provision offers 60 full-time Nursery and Reception places.
