Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is an outstanding school. Pupils achieve exceptionally well in reading, writing and mathematics from broadly average starting points.

Attainment is consistently high by the end of Year 6. Typically, pupils are nearly two years ahead of the average for their age group. The school was in the top 3% nationally in 2011 for adding value to pupils' learning in English.

Similar levels of achievement have been maintained in 2012. Teaching is outstanding. Lessons are lively, interesting and fun.

Pupils learn a lot in a short time. Marking is excellent. Mathematics lessons, although very active and practical, do not always give younger pupils enough challe...nges and problems to solve, unlike those for older pupils.

Behaviour is exemplary. Pupils are busy, happy learners who behave sensibly and responsibly. Pupils feel safe.

They enjoy coming to school because the curriculum engages and inspires them. Attendance is above average. The school is extremely well led and managed.

Very efficient systems mean that the school runs smoothly, even when the headteacher is teaching. This school continues to get better because of strong leadership of teaching. Members of the governing body support and challenge in equal measure, contributing to the school's high standards.

The school is excellent at catering for individual needs.
