This is a good school The principal has high expectations of staff and pupils. Working with an effective leadership team, there is a strong drive to ensure that the school continually improves. The school has been ably supported by the Ormiston Academies Trust (OAT).
Training provided by the trust is used well to improve the quality of teaching, especially in mathematics. Governors make a good contribution to helping the school to improve. They have the skills and information to hold school leaders to account effectively.
The proactive work of the pastoral team provides good support for both families and pupils. Pupils feel safe and are well cared for. Since t...he last inspection standards have risen year on year.
From low starting points, current pupils make good progress, especially in reading and mathematics. Children in the early years get off to a good start to their education. Leaders plan provision well so that children thrive in the nurturing environment.
Pupils who start school at different times, including those who are new to speaking English, receive effective support from adults. This helps them to settle in and make good progress from their starting points. The inclusive nature of the school ensures that pupils' needs are met well.
Those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) make good progress because of the support they receive. Teaching assistants use their initiative and skills well to check pupils' understanding. They provide effective support during lessons.
The curriculum is well planned. It provides pupils with rich and varied experiences to help develop their knowledge across a range of subjects. However, in subjects other than English and mathematics, the most able pupils receive work that is too easy or does not challenge them well enough.
On occasion, teachers do not plan sufficient opportunities for pupils to develop their stamina and resilience for writing. Additionally, adults do not consistently ensure that pupils apply their handwriting and spellings skills to all of their writing.
