What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 24 January 2024

Brooklands Primary is a warm and welcoming school. Pupils, staff and families are proud to be a part of this school community. The school has high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders have taken effective steps to ensure that their ambitious aims for the curriculum, including in early reading, are realised in practice. Staff understand and implement this vision well. They know how to support pupils gain and remember knowledge, and this means that pupils achieve well. Nevertheless, some aspects of the school's work to promote pupils' achievements are not fully embedded. This means that, sometimes, pupils are not learning knowledge as deeply as leaders intend. Pupils feel safe and are kept safe. They are taught how to keep safe online. They trust adults to deal with any issues, such as bullying. Pupils know that staff are there to help them if they have any worries. Pupils play happily together at social times. Older pupils care for younger pupils by being their buddy and supporting them during playtimes. Pupils enjoy the range of experiences beyond the academic curriculum, such as educational visits and extra-curricular clubs. Pupils have the opportunity to be part of the pupil parliament or to become one of the school's eco-warriors.

What the school should improve

  • Some aspects of the curriculum are new and not fully embedded. Although staff understand and implement the school's curriculum well, there are a few aspects that need to be embedded further so that pupils' learning deepens as leaders intend and pupils remember detailed knowledge in the long term. The trust and the school need to continue supporting leaders and staff to fully embed the school's curriculum so that it has the intended impact on pupils' learning.
