    Comments from Ofsted included:

    “Pupils enjoy the wide range of clubs on offer. These includes musical theatre, boxing
    and netball.”

    “The school places a high priority on the teaching of reading. This begins as soon as
    children start in the Reception class.”

    “Well-trained staff deliver the phonics programme effectively. Reading books
    are well matched to the sounds that pupils know.”

    “As soon as children start school in the Reception class, they learn well-established
    routines. This helps them to settle quickly into school life. As they move into key
    stages 1 and 2, pupils show great attentiveness in class. Pupils across school are
    sensible and mature. They listen carefully and have extremely positive attitudes to
    learning.”

    “The needs of pupils with SEND are swiftly identified. Staff adapt activities so that
    most pupils with SEND can learn alongside their friends. This helps most pupils with
    SEND to achieve well.”
