What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 25 February 2025
Bournville Primary School is a friendly place to learn. Pupils are welcoming to new pupils and visitors. They are interested to find out about the lives of others. The school has high expectations for pupils' achievement. However, these are not yet realised. Leaders have high expectations for pupils' behaviour and conduct. Pupils understand the school rules of 'Ready, respectful and safe'. They conduct themselves purposefully. Consequently, the school environment is calm and orderly. Pupils socialise happily and feel safe. The school has considered its pupils' contexts carefully when developing play activities. It has intentionally built opportunities for pupils to explore, be curious and collaborate, as well as be physically active. Pupils develop their talents and interests through extra-curricular clubs. They take part in activities such as dodgeball and colouring club. They make visits to places of interest. For example, pupils visit Roman remains to complement their work in history. Pupils participate in a range of civic initiatives. Through these, they develop confidence and a sense of agency. For example, they work with the local police and raise money for charity.
What the school should improve
- The checks that teachers make on learning do not routinely identify the extent to which pupils have learned the curriculum as intended. Therefore, gaps in pupils' understanding are not identified and addressed. The school and trust must ensure that teachers' use of assessment informs subsequent curriculum implementation, so that gaps in pupils' knowledge are closed.
- In some subjects, the school and trust have not ensured that staff have the subject and pedagogical knowledge required to deliver the curriculum as intended. This means pupils do not reach the focused curriculum goals. The school and trust must ensure that teachers have the subject and pedagogical knowledge they need to deliver the curriculum securely.
- The school does not consistently review the effectiveness of the curriculum with precision. Consequently, it is not fully able to promptly evaluate how well pupils are learning the curriculum. The school and trust must check precisely how well pupils are achieving across the curriculum and swiftly support pupils to achieve the curriculum goals.
