Leaders have tackled well a historical fall in pupils' outcomes. Current pupils are making good progress in a range of subjects. Governance is strong.
The trust and governing board know what the school does well and what could be even better. They monitor leaders' actions regularly and are effective in holding leaders to account. Middle leaders have successfully raised pupils' achievement within subjects.
They keep a careful watch on pupils' progress to help ensure that their actions continue to have a positive impact on raising standards. The quality of teaching is good. Teachers use their strong subject... knowledge to structure learning well and help pupils deepen their knowledge and understanding.
A wide range of effective strategies enhances pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development successfully to ensure that pupils are well prepared for life in modern Britain. Pupils' behaviour is good. They enjoy learning, listen attentively in class and work happily with their peers.
Pupils develop into successful learners because provision for their personal development and welfare is good. The early years setting is good. Children make strong progress, often from starting points that are typically lower than usual for their age, and are ready to achieve well when they start Year 1.
The curriculum is broad and interesting for pupils. However, in some subjects, pupils, particularly the most able, are not deepening and extending their knowledge sufficiently to prepare them well for the next stages of their education. The provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) has been reviewed, and systems have been strengthened to help support pupils effectively.
However, sometimes this support is not matched well enough to pupils' needs to help them to make good progress from their differing starting points.
