What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 May 2023

Pupils are happy to attend Croughton All Saints Church of England Primary School. They display positive attitudes to all aspects of school life. Pupils understand the school's Christian values. The school motto guides them to 'be ready, be respectful, be safe'. There are very high expectations of pupils' behaviour. Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They enjoy strong relationships with their teachers and other adults. Pupils say that they feel safe in the school. They trust that their teachers will help them if they are worried about anything. Leaders and teachers actively support pupils' well-being. Pupils enjoy a wide range of extra-curricular clubs, including choir, music, baking and a variety of sports. All pupils in key stage 2 have the opportunity to go on residential trips, where they take part in outdoor activities. At playtimes, they have access to a well- equipped playground and organised games. There is an active school council and pupils enjoy other roles of responsibility that their teachers give them.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, new curriculum plans have not yet had time to become fully embedded. In some lessons, learning resources do not support pupils to learn new knowledge as quickly as they might. In some other lessons, teachers do not plan activities well enough to meet pupils' needs. Leaders need to support teachers to ensure that lessons help pupils to learn and remember the important knowledge that they have identified in the curriculum.
