This is an outstanding school which provides a strong, caring ethos in which pupils of all abilities thrive. The dynamic and inspirational leadership of the headteacher and her deputy ensures that all pupils experience a diverse and rich curriculum which contributes extremely well to their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. Achievement is outstanding.
Children leave the Early Years Foundation Stage with skills well above those typical for their age. By the end of Year 6, pupils' attainment is significantly above that expected for their age. Progress for all groups, including disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs, is consistent across the school so that all pupils ...make outstanding progress.
Teaching is typically outstanding and never less than good. Teachers set high expectations, provide a wide range of challenging activities, and promote independence in thinking. As a result, pupils are fully engaged with their learning.
The school is a harmonious and cohesive community, and consequently pupils' behaviour is outstanding. Excellent relationships at all levels help to ensure that pupils thrive in a safe and secure environment. Leaders have focused on raising the quality of teaching with remarkable success.
This has been supported by very effective professional development of staff and a rigorous programme of quality assurance. An overwhelming majority of parents and carers are extremely happy with the school. The curriculum provides rich and diverse opportunities for learning.
A minor weakness is, however, that occasionally insufficient attention is given to planning for progression in core skills across the curriculum, particularly in subjects other than English and mathematics. This does not have a measurably negative impact on pupils' achievement.
