This is a good school Since joining the Heart Education Trust in 2015, leaders of the school have ensured that the quality of education the pupils receive is good. The work that pupils produce is of a high standard.
The trust's executive headteacher works with the headteacher on a regular basis. This has ensured a clear capacity for improvement. The quality of provision in the early years is good.
This gives children a strong grounding to make good progress in key stage 1. Leaders have taken effective action to improve attendance. It is now good.
Senior leaders, despite being relatively new to their roles, are having a positive impact on pupils' learn...ing. The curriculum offers pupils a wide and exciting range of learning experiences. However, the school has yet to develop a coherent strategy to ensure pupils' strong progress across all subject areas.
The teaching of reading along with phonics is a strength of the school. The curriculum provides many opportunities for pupils to develop their love of reading. Pupils' behaviour in lessons and around school is considerate, polite and courteous.
Pupils say that they are safe and that they are kind to each other. Their welfare is central to the work of the school. Strong teaching in reading, writing and mathematics in key stage 2 is ensuring that most pupils are making good progress.
However, teaching does not always provide enough challenge for the most able pupils, including in early years, to ensure that they deepen their knowledge, skills and understanding. Leaders and trustees do not keep parents and carers informed regularly about the work of the school and of the trust so that they understand the changes and developments taking place.
Information about this school
Lingwood Primary Academy became an academy in 2015 and is now part of the Heart Education Trust.
The trust's executive board, which includes the executive headteacher, is responsible for holding the academy leadership team to account. The school has increased the number of places available in the Nursery provision to 41 children. The school is smaller than most primary schools.
The proportion of disadvantaged pupils is in line with the national figure. Most pupils are of White British heritage, with small numbers of pupils from a range of different ethnic backgrounds. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6.
