Overall effectiveness Good
"This is a good school. The very large majority of parents and carers would recommend it to another parent or carer. It is not yet an outstanding school because the quality of teaching results in good rather than outstanding achievement by pupils."; "Children in the Reception class attain well and make good progress.In Years 1 and 2, progress is good in reading, writing and mathematics, resulting in above average attainment. In Years 3 to 6, pupils continue to make good progress. Attainment is significantly above average in reading, writing and mathematics. School data indicate that current attainment in all three subjects remains above average."
