What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 20 June 2023
Christ Church and Saint Peter's Primary School is a warm and friendly school. The school's motto, 'We aim high, caring for everyone', is evident in all aspects of school life. This is a school with a big heart that embraces children and makes them feel safe, happy and welcome. Pupils have warm relationships with adults in school. Pupils know that staff expect them to behave well. Respect is an expectation of all. Leaders are ambitious for all pupils. The school is very inclusive. Staff are determined that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), receive the support they need to flourish and achieve well. A range of enrichment activities develops pupils' talents and interests. Pupils benefit from a wide range of extra-curricular activities, including sports clubs, chess club, coding club and the popular history club. Staff know the pupils and their families well. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the school. A typical comment was, 'The school has a really strong and supportive ethos. It feels like all children are seen and nurtured as individuals.' Another parent commented, 'The school is fantastic. It is like a family.'
What the school should improve
- Some aspects of the curriculum need further refinement, in particular the use of assessment in foundation subjects. Leaders should ensure that assessment enables pupils to develop and deepen their understanding, and that the work set is matched to pupils' ability.
- Too many vulnerable pupils are persistently absent. They are missing education and are at risk of falling behind their peers. Leaders should continue to develop strategies to ensure that all pupils attend regularly.
