Summary of key findings for parents and pupils

This is a good school The headteacher has established a clear vision for the school. The staff share this vision.

The headteacher and leaders have brought about consistent improvement in the school. This has led to improvements in teaching and in pupils' achievement across the school, including the early years. Leaders, including the local committee, have high expectations for the pupils in all areas of school life, including in the wider curriculum.

Almost all pupils make good progress in reading, writing and mathematics in all year groups, and standards have risen over the last two years in key stages 1 and 2. The most able pupils are not always given suffic...ient challenge so that they achieve higher standards in reading and mathematics in key stage 2. Pupils behave well and have a good understanding about how they can keep themselves safe in different situations.

The local committee hold the headteacher accountable for improving the school by asking challenging questions and visiting regularly to check how well it is performing. The curriculum promotes pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development well. Attendance is below the national average, and persistent absence is above the national average.

The local committee (the governing body) has a clear view of the school's strengths and has carefully planned the next steps for its further improvement. Leaders are developing monitoring procedures and have focused targets on areas which need improvement.
