Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is an outstanding school Leaders, governors and staff are wholeheartedly committed to providing high-quality educational experiences that make a significant difference to pupils' lives. Leaders have developed a range of very effective partnerships that help them to share good practice and engage in high-quality professional dialogue. This ensures that they continue to hone the quality of education so that it constantly evolves and improves.

Leaders and governors use their in-depth knowledge of the school's context to provide a carefully planned curriculum that meets pupils' needs exceptionally well. As a result, outcomes are strong across subjects. Teachers have v...ery high expectations and thorough subject knowledge.

They are adept at questioning pupils in a way that deepens their understanding. There is a strong focus on developing pupils' vocabulary. Teachers explain words in detail and encourage pupils to think about words' origins as well as their meanings.

As a result, pupils are extremely articulate and use complex vocabulary well in their writing. Leaders have worked effectively to improve attendance. Consequently, the proportion of pupils who are persistently absent has fallen considerably.

Children make very strong progress in early years, because provision is well thought out to meet their needs. Leaders promote pupils' spiritual, social, moral and cultural development exceptionally well. Regular philosophy lessons develop pupils' critical thinking skills.

Pupils learn to express their opinions and listen to the views of others. Respect underpins the excellent relationships in the school. Pupils are clear that adults show them respect and that, therefore, they must do so in return.

Parents and carers are very positive about the school. Those who completed the online survey Parent View would unanimously recommend it. Leaders promote healthy lifestyles.

There is a very wide range of sporting opportunities on offer and pupils run a daily mile. However, pupils do not routinely choose the healthy option at lunchtime, particularly in the younger years.
