Summary Highlights
-
Strong start in early years: Children settle quickly and adapt to routines well. Staff rapidly identify additional needs and provide appropriate support early. Relationships between staff, parents, and children are quickly established.
-
Phonics and reading progress: Phonics teaching begins immediately, with an “ambitious curriculum” in place. Reading material is well‑matched to pupils’ known sounds, and pupils read frequently to build fluency. Pupils enjoy reading, talk about new authors, and reading leaders help others.
-
Inclusion & support for pupils with SEND: Teachers plan for pupils with SEND to work alongside their peers, and know what these pupils need to learn next. Parents of children with SEND remark positively that their children receive the support they need.
-
Behaviour, attitudes & school climate: Pupils feel the school is calm and respectful; they say teachers “are open to our feelings.” Playtimes are enjoyable for a variety of pupils (some active games, some relaxing) and minor disputes are quickly resolved. Pupils express pride in their school and feel listened to.
