This is an outstanding school Since becoming an academy in 2016, inspirational leadership from the headteacher and her deputy headteacher has transformed the quality of education provided for pupils. Their determination and ambition for pupils fosters a belief among staff that pupils of all abilities and backgrounds can achieve highly.
Leaders at all levels and staff work cohesively as a team to provide pupils with a rich, stimulating environment in which to learn. Teaching is outstanding. Staff go the extra mile to ensure that pupils overcome any barriers to their learning and make exceptional progress.
Pupils' outcomes in reading, writing, mathematics and sc...ience are consistently high. Leaders use additional funding wisely to ensure that the outcomes achieved by disadvantaged pupils are equally high. All pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and pupils who speak English as an additional language, achieve well.
Pupils do not make the same progress in foundation subjects as they do in reading, writing, mathematics and science. Behaviour is exceptional. Pupils respond very well to the expectations of them.
They thrive on the multiple rewards given out for good behaviour and positive attitudes. Pupils' enjoyment of school is shown in their regular attendance. They enthuse about the range of after-school clubs, trips and activities provided for them.
Children in Nursery and Reception classes get off to a great start. Leaders and staff ensure that children settle quickly, develop basic routines and learn to read from an early age. Phonics taught in Nursery provides a solid foundation for further learning.
Staff ensure that most pupils can read well by the time they start Year 1. The academy trust provides exceptional support and challenge for senior leaders. Governors are knowledgeable and professional, and they ensure that all statutory duties are met.
Parents and carers praise the quality of education, support and care provided by staff. Safeguarding is effective.
