Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. Leaders and managers have tackled key weaknesses since the previous inspection. Teaching is good, and is resulting in good progress across the school.

Attainment at the end of Year 6 in reading, writing and mathematics is at the national averages. Teachers have high expectations of all groups of pupils. As a result, disabled pupils and those with special educational needs make good progress.

Pupils funded through the pupil premium and those who speak English as an additional language make better than expected progress. What the school offers in the Early Years Foundation Stage is engaging and varied. Children make good progress from star...ting points well below those expected for their age.

Pupils benefit from a secure environment within which they feel safe. Regular routines and consistent adult support lead to good behaviour at all times. Regular opportunities for parents and carers to get involved in the school have helped to build strong positive relationships.

Governors know the school well. They use their knowledge of how well pupils are doing compared with other schools to provide effective support and to hold leaders and managers to account. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Lessons do not always provide activities that take account of the different needs within the class so not all pupils make consistently rapid progress.

Although attendance is broadly average, a small number of pupils are absent too often. Attainment in reading, writing and mathematics at the end of Key Stage 1, although improving year on year, is below the national averages.

Information about this school

This is much larger than the average-sized primary school.

Most pupils are from a range of minority ethnic backgrounds. Most of these pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of pupils eligible for the pupil premium, which provides additional funding for looked after children, pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and those from service families, is well above average.

The proportion of pupils supported through school action is above average, while the proportion supported through school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is average. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. The number of pupils who join and leave the school at other than the usual times is well above average.

The school does not use any alternative provision. There is a specialist unit for speech and language support on site, run by the local authority. The school runs a breakfast club.
