Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is an outstanding school.

Pupils receive an outstanding education in English, mathematics and other subjects. Pupils develop their academic, creative and practical skills exceptionally well and they are very well equipped for the next stage of learning. Achievement is outstanding because pupils progress from broadly average levels of attainment on entry to reach levels that are well above average at the end of Key Stage 2.

Levels of attainment at Key Stages 1 and 2 are higher than at the time of the previous inspection. At Key Stage 2, a high proportion of pupils make the nationally expected levels of progress in reading, writing and mathematics. A good p...roportion exceeds national expectations.

This includes pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium, disabled pupils and those with special educational needs. Pupils' achievement in art and design is outstanding. The outstanding teaching is typified by excellent relationships and high expectations.

High quality planning and the methodical teaching of skills successfully engage learners and promote achievement. The outstanding curriculum is highly effective in promotion of pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. A comprehensive programme of well-planned visits and experiences provides an excellent stimulus for learning in a wide range of subjects.

Pupils' attitudes to learning and their behaviour are exemplary. High levels of motivation and enjoyment are evident in the strong work ethic in lessons. The outstanding leadership and management are based on the headteacher's well-articulated vision for primary education.

This is strongly supported by staff, parents and governors. Leaders carry out rigorous performance management and provide highly effective professional development.
