Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. The quality of teaching is good. Some teaching is now outstanding.

Children make a good start in the Nursery and Reception classes. Pupils' progress has increased across the school. Standards are currently above average in all year groups.

Disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs are well supported and make good progress. Pupils have positive attitudes to learning. They help to choose the topics they study.

Attendance is above average. Behaviour is good in lessons and around the school. Pupils feel safe.

The school is led and managed well. The senior leadership team has worked effectively with govern...ors and subject leaders to improve teaching and increase pupils' progress. Governors offer good support and challenge to the school and its leaders.

All safeguarding requirements are met. Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is good. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Opportunities for teachers and learning support assistants to improve their practice by sharing what they do best in teaching within the school and through visits to other schools are still developing.

In a few lessons, teachers do not enable pupils to progress rapidly to even higher levels by first assessing what they already know, nor do they challenge them by putting a time limit on activities. Pupils have limited opportunities to apply their information and communication technology, literacy and numeracy skills at the highest levels in a few of the other subjects they study. Although the school has good systems for the collection and analysis of data about pupils' progress, these data are not used effectively enough when planning activities to close the few remaining gaps in attainment.

Information about this school
