From the inspection on 13 September 2023
Burlington Junior is a vibrant, inclusive and friendly place. Pupils enjoy coming to school and make the most of the wide range of opportunities provided. Relationships at the school are warm and respectful. Pupils feel safe and are kept safe. Staff have high expectations of what all pupils can achieve. The school has planned the curriculum so that it offers breadth and variety. The school's focus on high ambition for all ensures that teaching introduces new learning in clear, manageable steps. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) follow the same curriculum and receive extra help if they need it. Pupils behave well. If behaviour falls below expectations, staff act swiftly to deal with it. Pupils understand the importance of being 'ready, respectful and safe'. They are confident to take on responsibilities, such as acting as representatives on the school council. Bullying is rare. Pupils are confident that, if it happens, staff will take action to deal with it. Pupils appreciate the range of clubs and visits the school offers. These include football, coding club, choir and craft activities. Pupils speak excitedly of the Year 5 'Camp Night', residential trips, visits to Hampton Court Palace and the clubs they attend.
What the school should improve
- The school's ambitious curriculum is not firmly embedded. In a few subjects, this is at an earlier stage of development. In these subjects, pupils do not remember the foundational knowledge they have covered securely. The school should continue to implement plans to embed the curriculum fully.
