What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 30 January 2024
Pupils at Bramham Primary School are happy and enjoy coming to school. They are polite, courteous and welcoming of visitors. Pupils demonstrate the school's core values of confidence, acceptance, resilience and empathy. They develop positive relationships with adults and their peers. These strong relationships help pupils to feel safe in school. Pupils respond positively to the school's high expectations of behaviour. At playtimes and lunchtimes, they play well together. Pupils insist that there is no bullying, and they know that adults would deal with it swiftly if it did occur. Leaders have high ambitions that every pupil will achieve their best, including those who are disadvantaged and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils have positive attitudes to their learning and are keen to contribute in lessons. Pupils thrive in a range of leadership roles. School councillors appreciate their contributions to making the school a better place. Reading ambassadors advocate for reading and help choose books for the school library. Food ambassadors play a part in deciding menus on offer for lunch. Pupils show respect for equality and diversity.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the most important knowledge and vocabulary that pupils need to learn is not revisited often enough. This means that sometimes pupils cannot remember what they have been taught well enough. The school should ensure that the most important knowledge and vocabulary in these subjects is revisited regularly so that pupils strengthen their learning.
- Although pupils benefit from opportunities to participate in sport, their talents and interests are not sufficiently developed in other areas. The school should do more to widen opportunities for pupils to develop their talents and interests through the curriculum and other activities.
