  • It fosters a strong sense of community among pupils and staff, and within the wider local area.  
  • Pupils are happy and feel part of this close-knit school.  Pupils are keen to attend school.

  • It prioritises reading, writing, and mathematics from the start.

This was an ungraded inspection but found that the school had taken effective action to maintain the standards at the previous inspection. 

 

Our last graded inspection was in 2015 when we were graded GOOD.  This was confirmed again in our ungraded inspection in 2019 and 2024.
