What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 June 2022
Leaders are ambitious for this small school. They have high expectations for what pupils should achieve. They have carefully considered their community and what the pupils need to be successful when designing their curriculum. Pupils are very positive about their learning. They want to do well and try hard in all lessons. Admiral Long Church of England Primary School does not just focus on academic outcomes. Pupils experience a range of sporting and cultural events to enhance their learning. Leaders want their pupils to grow into well-rounded young people, ready to take their place in the world. The school curriculum, enrichment experiences and the wider opportunities on offer have been designed to achieve this. Pupils say that behaviour is good and that bullying does not happen. If bullying were to happen, pupils know what to do. Inspectors saw calm behaviour in classes and when pupils were together in assembly. This continued at playtime. Pupils also say they feel very safe at school. Inspectors agree. Parents and staff are overwhelmingly positive about the school. All parents who completed Ofsted's survey, and those spoken with during the inspection, would recommend the school. They are proud that their children attend the school. Parents are full of praise for leaders and staff at the school.
What the school should improve
- Leaders do not check that targets for children with SEND are consistently implemented. This means that some pupils with SEND do not always receive the appropriate support to access the curriculum as planned. Leaders should ensure that pupils with SEND receive the support they need.
- Leaders have not provided the necessary activities and resources outdoors to support the delivery of the curriculum in early years. Activities are effective in keeping children busy, but many lack a clear purpose or provide learning that challenges children's thinking, exploration and discovery. Leaders need to develop the early years in order to support children to develop their curiosity, concentration and enjoyment.
