What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 May 2023
Charborough Road Primary School is a warm, welcoming and inclusive school. Pupils and staff are proud to be part of the school. Pupils are happy and safe. They know that if they have any problems an adult will listen to them. There is a shared commitment to include everyone within the school. Pupils are caring and celebrate differences. If they need individual support, trained staff are at hand to help them. Pupils are confident and gregarious. They are welcoming of visitors and keen to share what they like best about the school. Leaders have high expectations. Pupils understand this and enjoy learning. For example, children in the Reception Year delight in watching their class chicks hatch. This helps them to learn about lifecycles. Pupils take up the variety of experiences available to them in the classroom and beyond. They are enthusiastic about participating in sports clubs, such as netball and athletics. Older pupils welcome the opportunity to support younger children at play. This helps them to develop a sense of responsibility.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, teachers do not use what they know about pupils' understanding of the curriculum to make necessary adaptions. Therefore, pupils do not develop the deep and secure understanding they need for their learning in the future. Leaders should ensure that assessment is used to inform teaching so that it supports pupils to build their knowledge cumulatively in all subjects.
