What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 10 December 2024

Chase Terrace Primary is a school where staff put the needs of pupils at the heart of all they do. Warm and purposeful relationships lie at the heart of the school's work. Pupils value their teachers because they know they care about them and listen to their concerns. This helps pupils feel safe and happy in school. Staff model the respect they expect pupils to show to each other. This has led to pupils being kind to each other and behaving well. Older pupils relish the opportunity to have a 'buddy' in Reception. They enjoy the responsibility of looking after the younger children at social times. They help them and look out for their needs. This gives them a sense of purpose and supports the younger pupils to settle quickly. This is one of many ways the pupils live out the school's values of respect, determination, honesty, friendship and enthusiasm. The school has high ambitions that all pupils reach their potential. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils respond to these ambitions by working hard and achieving well. They take great pride in their work and are keen to continue improving where they can.

What the school should improve

  • Some pupils are regularly absent for long periods. This means they are not learning as much as they should. The school should continue to work with families to ensure the attendance rates of the most vulnerable pupils improve.
  • Contact with external safeguarding agencies is not recorded as robustly as it could be. This means that on occasion not all staff are fully aware of when this has happened or if concerns have been resolved to the school's satisfaction. The school should further strengthen its record-keeping of concerns raised with external agencies so it can closely monitor how quickly it receives a response and whether this is appropriate.
