This is an outstanding school. Pupils' achievement is outstanding.
They consistently reach high standards of attainment in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6. They make excellent progress, often from very low starting points on entry to school and often exceeding the progress expected for primary-age pupils across the country. Outstanding teaching means that after an excellent start in the Nursery and Reception classes pupils continue to build on their skills, year by year, as they move up through the school.
Teachers have high expectations. Learning activities are carefully matched to pupils' needs, with a well-judged balance between challe...nge and support for pupils of all abilities. This contributes strongly to pupils' excellent achievement.
Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They feel extremely safe, they are happy and secure, ready and able to learn and progress successfully. They have trusting relationships with the adults in school.
Their attendance is above average. Pupils are proud of their school. They contribute in many ways to making it a happy place for everyone, including acting as influential school councillors.
The headteacher's excellent leadership is strongly supported by an effective deputy headteacher, by very knowledgeable governors and by staff at every level in the school. There is a relentless pursuit of on-going improvement; for example, the school is currently focusing on ways to help pupils develop their literacy skills even more rapidly.
