This is a good school. A large majority of pupils make good progress in English and mathematics.
Teaching is mostly good. There are good relationships between staff and pupils. Teachers and teaching assistants offer great care and support to pupils who are disabled and have special educational needs.
Pupils' books are marked regularly, with detailed comments from teachers, which help pupils improve their work. Pupils in the Autism Resourced Provision Unit are integrated well into lessons and there are various support systems in place to ensure that they make good progress. Pupils enjoy learning, behave well and feel safe in school.
Pupils attend schoo...l regularly and enjoy the many extra activities before or after school. The school has improved since the previous inspection. Leaders know what they need to do make it even better.
Leaders, with the effective support of governors, have made teaching more effective and, as a result, pupils are making better progress. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Pupils' progress is not as rapid in mathematics as it is in English in Key Stage 2. Pupils are not given enough opportunities to apply what they have learnt to real-life experiences.
Some teaching, especially in mathematics, does not challenge pupils of higher ability. Teachers' planning does not always build effectively on pupils' skills in mathematics to help to make rapid progress.
