This is a good school. Pupils' achievement across the year groups is good.
As a result, they reach above average standards in reading, writing and mathematics at the end of Year 2. School leaders have high aspirations for pupils' academic and social development. They ensure that teaching, achievement and pupils' behaviour are consistently good and improving.
Consequently, pupils leave the school well prepared for the next stage of their education in junior school. Teaching is good. Teachers plan lessons that meet the needs of all groups of pupils and inspire them to learn well.
Pupils enjoy coming to school. They are well behaved, feel safe and have g...ood attitudes to learning. Governors are well informed and check the work of the school regularly.
They provide sound strategic leadership as well as strong challenge and support for school leaders. The well-planned curriculum and many exciting enrichment activities on offer foster pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development well. It is not yet an outstanding school because : The quality of teaching is not yet sufficiently strong to ensure that all pupils make rapid progress.
Occasionally, when the most-able pupils have fully understood their work, they are not given more difficult activities to challenge them to reach the higher levels of which they are capable. At times, marking and feedback do not make it clear enough to pupils how they can improve their work. Therefore, they are not able to correct their work and learn from their mistakes.
Some subject leaders do not check the work of their colleagues closely enough to ensure that they help pupils make rapid progress across their subjects.
Information about this school
This infant school is similar in size to the average-sized primary school. The proportion of pupils supported by the pupil premium (additional government funding which in this school supports pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and those looked after by the local authority) is below average.
Most pupils come from White British backgrounds. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is below average. The proportion of pupils supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is usually below average but the numbers have risen markedly this year.
The school belongs to the Billericay Community Trust (BCT), a partnership with 13 primary-aged schools and two secondary schools. Since the previous inspection the governing body appointed a deputy headteacher in April 2013 to add capacity to the senior leadership team. A new Nursery building opened in November 2013.
