This inspection rating relates to a predecessor school. When a school converts to an academy, is taken over or closes and reopens as a new school a formal link is created between the new school and the old school, by the Department for Education. Where the new school has not yet been inspected, we show the inspection history of the predecessor school, as we believe it still has significance.

Key findings
Conway Primary is a good school.
Pupils make consistently good progress from their starting points across the school because teaching is good. The school is not outstanding because achievement and teaching are not yet consistently outstanding. Teachers do not always use assessment information to adjust tasks during lessons when pupils find them too easy or too difficult.
Pupils know their learning targets but are not always clear about what they precisely need to do to reach them without the support from teachers. Pupils' reading, writing and mathematics skills in other subjects are not always as good as in English and mathematics lessons. Achievement is good.
Attainment is average ac...ross the school this year. Disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs make good progress to reach and sometimes exceed expected levels of attainment. Teaching is good.
Sometimes it is outstanding. Lessons are matched well to pupils' interests, abilities and learning needs. Consequently, pupils' engagement is good.
Teachers and teaching assistants support pupils well using questions effectively to guide them through tasks rather than telling them what to do. Behaviour and safety are good. Pupils feel safe in school and know what to do if they have a concern.
Pupils' positive attitudes and eagerness to do well make a strong contribution to good learning. Leadership and management are good. The excellent leadership from the headteacher motivates the relentless drive for improvement.
Pupils, staff, parents and members of the governing body are fully involved in strategic planning. Performance is managed well. Targeted training and support has led to significant improvements in the quality of teaching and the school's leadership.
Capacity to improve is outstanding. A comprehensive and accurate evaluation of pupils' achievement and systematic improvement planning has resulted in rapid and strong improvement across the school's work.
