Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school The headteacher and her team provide strong leadership. They have worked vigorously to improve teaching, learning and systems to check pupils' progress since the previous inspection.

This has led to improvements in both teaching and outcomes. Because they are now well taught, current pupils learn well, make good progress from their starting points and reach the standards expected for their age. Pupils learn in a supportive environment where their teachers know them well.

As a result, pupils have positive attitudes to learning and work well together. Disadvantaged pupils are making good progress and are catching up with their classmates. T...he school's work to keep pupils safe and secure is effective.

Pupils enjoy school life and they behave well. Their conduct around the school is good. Pupils of all ages get on well together.

Pupils work hard and take pride in their work. They take great care to ensure that their work is always neat and well presented. The provision for pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is good.

They are well prepared for life in modern Britain and their next stage of education. Children in the early years benefit from good-quality provision and they are well prepared for Year 1 The governing body supports the school well and has a good awareness of its strengths and weaknesses. It is rigorous in holding the school to account for pupils' progress and ensuring that it continues to improve.

It is not yet an outstanding school because : Teachers do not do enough to help pupils develop their reasoning and problem-solving skills in mathematics. Marking is not consistently good in all subjects. Sometimes the work for more-able pupils is not hard enough, which means they do not learn as well as they could.
