What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 November 2023
Being 'ACE' sits at the heart of every pupil's experience at this school. Even before a child's first day, the school welcomes them to the Colmore family. In early years, the school places children's interests and identities at the centre of the curriculum. Staff skilfully engage children in learning. This all helps to ensure that children get an exceptional start to their education. This high-quality education continues through key stage 1, where pupils build on what they know. Consequently, pupils achieve very well. The school has high expectations for pupils' learning and behaviour. There is a clear emphasis on the right to learn and the right to feel safe. Children and pupils across the school know these rights and actively promote them. They support each other in their learning and play, showing kindness and high levels of respect. Pupils have a range of high-quality experiences outside lessons, including a vast array of clubs. There are many opportunities to raise money for charity and visit local attractions. Pupils are proud of their 'Rights Rangers' roles. They take this responsibility seriously and ensure that they keep their class informed of the important work they are doing.
