Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school The acting headteacher and her deputy have provided strong leadership for the school during a period of significant change.

They have led improvements since the previous inspection and remain determined to drive the school forward and achieve the best for every pupil. Leaders have ensured that there is an effective approach to teaching across the school. They have made regular checks and acted swiftly to rectify any weaknesses.

As a result, the quality of teaching and learning in key stages 1 and 2 is now good and pupils make good progress. The most able pupils, however, are not always provided with challenging activities as soon as they ...are ready to move on in their learning. On these occasions, they make slower progress.

Middle leaders are increasingly effective in improving the quality of teaching, particularly in English and mathematics. Those who are new to their subject leadership role share a determination to ensure that all pupils achieve their best. Leadership of disadvantaged pupils and pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is effective.

Leaders' actions have ensured that these pupils make strong progress. Teachers in key stages 1 and 2, including those who are new to teaching, have high expectations and they plan creative lessons that spark pupils' interest and inspire them to do well. Pupils love learning and this is reflected in their high level of attendance.

Pupils behave well in and out of lessons. They are polite and respectful to each other and adults. Pupils feel safe and well cared for.

Their personal development and welfare prepare them well for life in modern Britain. The school is a vibrant, happy place. The school's exciting curriculum and strong values develop pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development well.

Significant staffing changes in the early years have meant that provision does not consistently meet the needs of all children. As a result, children do not make the good progress they should. The majority of parents are very supportive of the school.

They believe that their children are very well cared for, and that they progress well in their learning. Parents are not regularly involved in their children's learning, particularly in the early years. Parents would like better communication with the school.
