Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school.

It is a very friendly and welcoming place in which to learn. Pupils make good progress and achieve well throughout the school. As a result, the proportion of pupils attaining the expected level of attainment by the end of Year 6 in reading, writing and mathematics is above average.

Teaching is usually good and some is outstanding. Teachers have good subject knowledge and explain ideas clearly and confidently. Pupils' behaviour and their attitudes to learning are outstanding.

They say they feel very safe in school at all times. The curriculum promotes pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development in an outstanding man...ner. The headteacher is ambitious for the school and has high expectations of all staff and pupils.

Leaders and governors have worked successfully to maintain and build upon the school's good performance at the previous inspection. There are effective procedures for checking the school's performance and for identifying areas for further development. Staff show high levels of respect and courtesy for pupils and others.

The governing body knows the school's strengths and weaknesses and is influential in helping it move forward. The ability of leaders and governors to carry on making improvements is good. It is not yet an outstanding school because: There is not enough outstanding teaching.

Pupils are not always given work that matches and challenges their ability. Teaching assistants are not always deployed effectively to promote pupils' learning. There are not enough opportunities for pupils to find things out for themselves.
