Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. The headteacher's determined leadership ensures that the quality of teaching is mostly good and, at times, outstanding. Pupils achieve well and, by Year 6, attainment is well above average in English and mathematics.

Leaders and teachers carefully check the progress of every pupil to ensure that nobody falls behind. Teaching assistants provide good support for any pupils who need additional help. The school accurately evaluates how well it is doing and what needs to be done to improve.

Pupils' good behaviour and attitudes to learning contribute to the strong sense of community in the school. The governing body is very effective and provi...des the school with good levels of challenge. Pupils feel very safe and display a high level of respect for the feelings and well-being of others.

The school benefits from the support of the overwhelming majority of parents. It is not yet an outstanding school because : In a few lessons, teachers do not check pupils' learning thoroughly enough to make sure that any misunderstandings are identified and corrected. When pupils are working in small groups, teachers do not always notice that some are not making a full contribution.

The school has yet to evaluate which strategies are having the biggest impact on raising the attainment of disabled pupils, those who have special educational needs, or pupils for whom pupil premium funding is intended.

Information about this school

This is an average-sized primary school. Virtually all pupils are White British.

The proportion of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium is low. This is additional government funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals, those in local authority care and others. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is average.

The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is below average. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. Five teachers joined the staff of the school in September 2013.
