What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 February 2026
All Saints’ Catholic Primary School comes to life each morning when pupils arrive to eagerly begin the school day. Staff know the pupils extremely well. Staff in the early years provide caring support and gentle encouragement to help children start the day ready to learn. During their time in the early years, guided by expert staff, children get off to a flying start in their education. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who are disadvantaged thrive at the school. Barriers to learning are skilfully broken down, which enables these pupils to make superb progress from their starting points. Across the school, pupils are well prepared for their next stages of education in reading, writing and mathematics. That said, there remain a small number of subjects where pupils do not achieve as well as they could. Pupils attend school regularly. They miss little learning. The school is calm and orderly. Pupils settle quickly into their activities. The school’s values help pupils understand and enact excellent behaviour. They continually show respect for one another. Incidents of bullying are very rare. Any friendship concerns are swiftly addressed by staff. Pupils trust that staff will support them in times of need. This helps pupils to feel safe at school. Self-belief and confidence are qualities that pupils develop as they move through the school. Pupils demonstrate this through some of the leadership opportunities that they take up. For example, within the performing arts group, older pupils teach routines to their younger peers. Pupils develop a positive sense of moral purpose. One of the ways in which they express this is through writing to the local council on issues that affect their wider community. Pupils are extremely well prepared for life in modern Britain.
What the school should improve
- Leaders should ensure that in subjects other than reading, writing and mathematics, the curriculum is covered in sufficient detail and that gaps in knowledge are identified and addressed in a timely manner.
