“Pupils enjoy reading and this has had a positive impact on the quality of pupils’ writing.
“The school’s curriculum provides a broad and balanced range of subjects.
“Disadvantaged children and those with special educational needs or disabilities make good progress.
“Pupils’ behaviour is good and they had a positive attitude to learning.”
To become Outstanding, the school was told to improve the quality of teaching further, particularly in mathematics.
