What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 6 March 2024
Corbett VA CofE Primary School is a caring school that pupils enjoy attending. There are warm, respectful relationships between staff and pupils. Pupils of all ages play and learn happily together. They embody the school motto of, 'love to learn and learn to love'. Pupils are proud of their school. They say that they make good friends in school and that they feel safe. They know that there is always an adult to talk to if they have any worries. They particularly value the pastoral support they receive. The school rightly prides itself on its nurturing culture. The school wants the best for every pupil. Changes are being made and leaders are keen to ensure that the clear vision for continued improvement is shared and understood by all. Pupils achieve well and learn the knowledge they need to be ready for the next stages of their education. Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They are learning the new school rule to be, 'ready, respectful and safe'. This means that learning is not disrupted. Parents are aware that there have been many recent changes. Many of them value the consideration given to communicating these changes. They recognise that the school is on a journey of making improvements to become even better.
What the school should improve
- The school has a culture of safeguarding which supports effective arrangements to identify, help and support pupils who may be at risk of harm. However, there are some minor improvements to be made to training records, safeguarding meetings and capacity of safeguarding leaders. Leaders should ensure that they implement these small changes quickly, to ensure that safeguarding arrangements are as robust as possible.
- A new phonics programme has recently been introduced. At times, it is not delivered in the way the school intends. This hinders some pupils in building the skills they need to become confident, fluent readers. The school should ensure that the staff receive the right support to deliver the phonics programme as intended, and that they develop their systems for checking how the phonics programme is implemented.
