Short inspection of St George's RC Primary School

Following my visit to the school on 30 November 2017, I write on behalf of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Education, Children's Services and Skills to report the inspection findings.

The visit was the first short inspection carried out since the school was judged to be good in May 2013. This school continues to be good. The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection.

You and the staff at St George's RC Primary are passionately committed to meeting the needs of pupils within the disadvantaged community you serve. Over half of your pupils are eligible to receive the pupil premium and around one in 10... of your pupils speak English as an additional language. In addition, a high proportion of pupils joins or leaves the school during key stages.

Nevertheless, pupils thrive because teaching over time is of good quality and pupils display consistently positive attitudes to learning. Pupils from different ethnic groups told me that they feel very welcomed and included from the start. You take particular care to check the impact that the additional support you provide has on pupils' progress and attendance.

The extra help staff provide for pupils who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities and for pupils who speak English as an additional language is carefully recorded and checked across the year to determine whether it is working effectively. All members of staff who responded to the staff survey said that the school has improved under your leadership. Parents who responded to Parent View, Ofsted's online survey, agree and all would recommend the school.
