Highly skilled teaching assistants provide outstanding support for those pupils who have fallen behind in their learning. Pupils work hard, behave well and feel safe in school. The school's leaders check the quality of teaching well and have an accurate view of its strengths and weakn...esses.

They provide excellent training to improve teaching and raise achievement, especially in reading and writing. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Teachers have not been trained to improve pupils' progress in mathematics in the same way as they are doing in reading and writing.

Teachers do not always plan tasks that are well matched to pupils' abilities in mathematics or give them harder work in lessons when it is needed.
