This is an effective school with many very good and some excellent features.  The ethos is warm and caring and the school has an excellent partnership with parents.  This leads to very positive attitudes and very good behaviour on the part of the pupils.  The overall good quality teaching enables pupils to achieve well above national expectations in many subjects of the curriculum.  The headteacher provides very good leadership and is very well supported by the governing body and staff.  Finances are used efficiently and the school provides good value for money.

• Standards in English, Mathematics, and some of the foundation subjects* are well above national expectations by the end of Years 2 and 4. 
• Overall, it provides good quality teaching in Years 1 and 2 and the Foundation Stage, which is having a positive impact on standards.
• The headteacher provides very good leadership and the school is well managed.
• The overall good provision for pupils’ spiritual, moral and social development results in their very good behaviour, attitudes and relationships.
• The school values parental contributions highly and has established excellent links with parents and the community.
• The very good provision for pupils with special education needs is enabling many of these pupils to make good progress.

1. The development of ICT across the curriculum is a focus common to the majority of current reports.  We have found it difficult to plan the way forward because of the need to balance the cost of this initiative against the other curriculum subjects.

2. The development of the Senior Management Team is in its early stages due to changes within the team.  When the SMT is in place it should ensure much more effective organisation across the 2 sites.

We have also drawn up a plan for the development of marking across the school.  Although this was not a main area for improvement we decided that it would be helpful to have a clear outline for the way forward in this area of our work. 

This Action Plan will form the basis for the Inspectors in setting out the issues for our next Inspection.
