Key findings

This is a good school. It is not outstanding because not enough pupils reach the higher levels in their writing and there is inconsistency in the quality of teaching.

The school has many strengths, including the ethos of valuing everyone, and parents and carers believe their children feel part of a happy extended family. Pupils of all abilities make good progress as they move through the school. They achieve well, especially in reading and mathematics.

Standards in writing are not quite as high because some pupils do not develop the skills to write in greater detail and at length. At times, the spelling and handwriting of some pupils are not well enough developed for their age. The quality of ...teaching is good and especially strong for the youngest and oldest pupils.

Staff have close working relationships with their charges which spurs them on to do well. Pupils know their targets for improvement and what to do to make their work even better. On too many occasions, though, tasks are the same or very similar for pupils of all abilities within a mixed-aged class, and this does not always offer sufficient challenge for the higher attainers.

The behaviour and safety of the pupils is good. Pupils get on very well together. They have a good understanding of how to keep safe in and around school.

Leadership and management are good. The headteacher's calm but quietly determined leadership ensures an effective focus on improving teaching and further raising standards through the management of performance. Senior staff provide high level teaching skills and effective leadership of the Early Years Foundation Stage and for disabled pupils and those with special educational needs.

Governance is good and the school has good capacity to improve further.

Information about the school

This is a school that is smaller than the average size. The large majority of pupils are of White British heritage and a very small number speak English as an additional language.

The percentage known to be eligible for free school meals is well below average. The proportion of pupils supported by school action plus is below average, as is the number with a statement of special educational needs. The school meets the current floor standard, the minimum expectations for attainment set by the government.

There is provision for children in the Early Years Foundation Stage from the age of four. There is before- and after-school care available for the pupils but this is not managed by the governing body and is therefore inspected separately. The school holds a Healthy Schools award and numerous local sporting awards.
