Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is an outstanding school. Pupils make excellent progress and their attainment in English and mathematics is consistently well above average by the time they leave the school. Pupils respond superbly to the outstanding teaching.

They develop a love of learning because teachers interpret the curriculum in imaginative ways which engage, motivate and challenge them. Meticulous assessment pinpoints how well each individual pupil is achieving and enables teachers to plan work which moves their learning on rapidly. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary.

They get along with one another extremely well and enjoy all aspects of school. From Reception onwards, they develop ...a high degree of independence. Pupils feel entirely safe.

They know they are valued and are confident that adults have their best interests at heart. Parents and carers are extremely positive, particularly about the school's core values and ethos. 'This is a fantastic school' was a typical comment.

Pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is promoted extremely well during day-to-day lessons and through a wide range of enrichment activities. School leaders have ensured that high standards have been maintained since the last inspection. The headteacher plays a pivotal role in driving further improvements and is supported extremely well by the highly committed team of senior leaders, staff and governors.

Governors carry out their duties very effectively. They keep a sharp eye on pupils' performance and the quality of teaching to help ensure the school sustains its success. The school is so successful that it has supported schools within the local authority.

Information about this school

The school is smaller than the average sized primary school. Most pupils are White British, with under 10% from a range of minority ethnic groups. Very few pupils speak English as an additional language.

The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals, for whom the school receives additional funding through the pupil premium, is well below average. The pupil premium provides additional funding for children in the care of the local authority, children with a parent or carer serving in the armed forces and those known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is below average.

The proportion supported through school action plus or with a statement of special educational need is also below average. These needs relate mainly to moderate learning difficulties and emotional or behavioural problems. The school has received awards for its work in art, science and geography, and for the promotion of pupils' ecological awareness.
