Ofsted
Ofsted are the statutory organisation that inspect schools. The latest inspection, in January 2023, judged our school to be good with outstanding for Personal Development . You can view the report on the Ofsted website.The key points are as follows:
- Children get off to a good start in Reception because the excellent ratio of staff to children gives them good individual attention.
- Pupils make good progress through the school from their starting points.
- Teaching is now consistently good and pupils have a thirst for learning. They come each day keen and eager to learn.
- Reading is a particular strength because phonics (how letters link to the sounds they make) are taught well and every pupil practises their reading regularly.
- In class, pupils are attentive and curious to learn; they persevere and try their best.
- Pupils have a very good understanding of how to stay safe and say that the school cares for them well.
- The school meets its aim to provide a broad and rich range of enjoyable activities.
- Parents are very supportive of the school. A typical comment is, ‘A good foundation is laid in this idyllic spot.’ Parents work in close partnership with the school to see their children do well.
- The headteacher and governors have brought about good improvements in teaching and learning since the previous inspection.
