What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 27 September 2023
Burraton Community Primary School is a nurturing and inclusive place to learn. Pupils are happy and enjoy coming to school. They know that there is someone there to help them if they have any worries. The school has five 'golden respects,' such as to speak and behave respectfully. These are evident in all that pupils do. The school is ambitious for all pupils. Pupils are positive about their experience of school. For example, they enjoy the 'dazzling starts' to their learning. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive the help they need to learn well. The school has high expectations for how pupils behave. Pupils meet these expectations and understand, appreciate and respect difference. There are strong relationships between pupils and staff. Bullying is extremely rare, but pupils are confident that, when it does happen, the school deals with it quickly. Parents and pupils appreciate the wide range of extra-curricular experiences that the school provides. Pupils enjoy taking on varying responsibilities. The school promotes equality of opportunity very well, so all pupils are encouraged to take part in everything the school has to offer.
What the school should improve
- Where the curriculum is not embedded, teachers' subject knowledge is not secure. When this occurs, pupils do not learn and remember the curriculum fully. The school should ensure that teachers have the subject and pedagogical knowledge they need to support pupils to retain key knowledge in all subjects.
