What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 26 November 2024
Pupils are proud to attend Baston CE Primary School and know that the school helps them to do their best. They enjoy their lessons and most pupils work hard. The school has high expectations and this helps pupils to achieve well. A love of reading is promoted and pupils talk positively about their school library bus. Pupils like to select books to read for pleasure and enjoy talking about the rich variety of texts they learn from in the classroom. Pupils enjoy opportunities to become digital leaders and sports ambassadors. They are beginning to consider ways that they can use their own ideas to make changes in the school. Pupils enjoy their experiences of residential trips and other experiences, such as visiting the local farm. They like to help others in the community, for example, when serving lunch at the church. Most pupils feel happy and safe and this is reflected in their high levels of attendance. Most pupils know that they can share their worries and concerns with adults, who are kind and caring. However, a small number of pupils experience unkindness. They feel that the school does not deal with the rare incidents of bullying quickly enough.
What the school should improve
- Sometimes, staff's checks to identify gaps in pupils' previous knowledge in some wider subjects is not leading to specific actions to resolve the issues. As a result, some pupils do not learn as well as they could. The school should make sure that staff are equipped to use assessment procedures consistently so that pupils learn well in all subjects.
- The school's provision for teaching about protected characteristics and bullying lacks consistency across the school. Consequently, a few pupils do not treat others with respect and others experience bullying. The school should ensure that all pupils understand the importance of treating others with respect and kindness. Also, that staff are well equipped to teach pupils about protected characteristics and deal with any bullying effectively.
