Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. Leaders, managers and governors have improved the school well since its previous inspection, to the extent that teaching and achievement are now good.

Strong leadership of teaching and rigorous checks on the quality of learning have ensured that the school continues to improve. Disadvantaged pupils make good progress because the pupil premium is spent effectively in supporting them. Teaching is lively and engages pupils well.

Teachers use questioning effectively to deepen pupils' understanding. Pupils' behaviour is good and they have positive attitudes to learning. They say they feel safe in school.

The school promotes pupils' s...piritual, moral, social and cultural awareness well and gives them a good understanding of British values. Leaders are skilled at helping teachers new to the profession to become effective practitioners. Leaders, managers and governors know the school's strengths and areas to develop well.

They have effective plans for improvement. The governing body is more effective than it was at the time of the previous inspection. Governors challenge leaders about the school's work.

It is not yet an outstanding school because : The quality of work in other subjects is not as high as it is in English and mathematics. Teachers do not show pupils how to improve their work effectively in all subjects. Leaders of some subjects have not had the same opportunities to make a difference to pupils' learning, as has been the case in English and mathematics.

Information about this school

The school is an average-sized primary school. There are two classes in each year group and two mixed-age classes. Most pupils are White British.

The proportion of disadvantaged pupils supported by the pupil premium (additional funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals or looked after by the local authority) is average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is average. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' progress and attainment by the end of Year 6.

The school was built in 1965. Half of it burned down and was rebuilt in 1985. Two new classrooms were added in 2015 in readiness for the school to expand to three forms of entry from September 2016.
