Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school. Most pupils learn well and attain well above average standards in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6.

Since the previous inspection, the rates of progress made by pupils have increased, and are now securely good. As a result, pupils now leave the school well equipped to continue their education. Pupils who are behind with their reading, writing and numeracy skills, when they start school, catch up very quickly in the Early Years Foundation Stage.

They make outstanding progress because of outstanding teaching. Pupils with special educational needs make the same rates of progress as other pupils, due to well-targeted sup...port. Teaching across the school is usually good.

Most lessons are stimulating and include interesting activities and relevant experiences. Pupils enjoy coming to school and say how safe and exceptionally well looked after, they feel. Their behaviour is outstanding.

They show excellent respect for each other, and enjoy welcoming visitors to school. All are highly enthusiastic about their own learning, and take pleasure in the regular opportunities to work with their peers. Attendance is above average and rising.

The headteacher and senior leaders exude high expectations and are effective leaders. Governors play their part in raising standards through rigorous analysis of information. They are confident in holding the headteacher to account.

Much has been done since the previous inspection to improve the quality of teaching and pupils' writing skills. It is not yet an outstanding school because : Not all pupils make the progress they might across all years, in mathematics. In some lessons, teachers do not check carefully enough the understanding of all pupils.

On occasions, some teachers do not change sufficiently activities and experiences, to meet individual pupils differing needs.

Information about this school

The school is an average sized primary school, located on two separate sites, one for infants and the other for juniors. The great majority of pupils are of White British heritage.

There are very few from minority ethnic groups or for whom English is an additional language. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium (additional funding for those pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals, children from armed services families and children who are looked after by the local authority) is well below average. An average proportion of pupils with special educational needs are supported through school action.

The proportion supported at school action plus, or with a statement of special educational needs, is lower than in most primary schools. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. Since the last inspection, there have been several changes in the senior leadership team and staff.
