This is an outstanding school. The drive, enthusiasm and vision of the headteacher have transformed the school from a good, high-achieving school into an outstanding one. As a result, leaders, staff, pupils and parents and carers are rightly proud of the school and fully committed to its motto of, 'Caring, Proud, Successful'.
The outstanding quality of teaching and learning in the Reception class means that Cobham children get off to an excellent start. This is built on so that, in each key stage, pupils make very good progress and become excellent readers, writers and mathematicians. The strong emphasis on developing a wide range of interests and talents means that pu...pils also achieve very well in other subjects such as science, music, physical education, humanities and the arts.
Overall, therefore, pupils' achievement is outstanding. Over time and across the school, the quality of teaching is outstanding. The great majority of lessons are carefully planned to build on earlier learning, spark pupils' interest and challenge them to push themselves that little bit further every day.
Teachers and teaching assistants use good questioning to check how well pupils are learning, help them understand, make connections between different ideas and use what they already know to make leaps in their learning. Pupils' behaviour and safety are outstanding. Excellent personal, spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is at the heart of the school's success and underpins all of the school's strengths.
Each member of the relatively new senior team is an outstanding teacher and this means that consistently excellent practice is distributed throughout the school. Careful planning for leaders' professional development means that they are well prepared and are making an increasingly strong contribution to leadership and management. Under the very skilful direction of the headteacher, including rigorous monitoring, high expectations and sharp focus on pupils' achievement, the quality of teaching and education as a whole have improved significantly since the last inspection.

The proportion of pupils who are disabled and those who have special educational needs is well below average. The number of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals is well below the national average and very few pupils are eligible for the additional pupil premium funding.
