What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 13 December 2022
Claremont Primary and Nursery School is a place where pupils come first. There is a nurturing ethos throughout the school. Pupils are happy to come to school and they feel safe. Pupils who are new to the school soon feel at home. One pupil explained, 'Coming to this school was the best thing I ever did.' Adults expect pupils to do their best. Leaders encourage pupils to 'do the right thing because it is the right thing to do'. Pupils live up to these expectations. They work hard and behave well. The school is calm and orderly. Lessons are rarely disrupted, which means that pupils can concentrate on their work. Bullying is very rare. Pupils are confident that if bullying happens, adults will stop it straight away. Pupils know that everyone is different, and they treat each other as individuals. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the school. They value the care and support that staff give to the pupils. One parent summed this up by saying, 'This is a great school with staff who really care about the education and well-being of every child.'
What the school should improve
- Some subject leaders are new to their roles and have only recently begun to check how well key knowledge and skills are being taught. In some instances, the implementation of the curriculum is not as focused as it could be on developing and extending pupils' knowledge. Leaders should continue to ensure that these subject leaders develop their evaluation of the curriculum. They should help subject leaders to improve their support and guidance to teachers and, in turn, ensure that the curriculum is delivered in line with the school's expectations.
- The attendance of some pupils is not good enough. As a result, they miss too much learning and do not achieve as well as they could. Leaders and staff should continue to work with children and their families to reinforce attendance expectations and to make sure that pupils attend school regularly so they can achieve their full potential.
