What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 28 November 2023
Pupils at Crudgington Primary School have 'pride, passion and purpose' in all that they do. They believe this motto is important and comment that 'these words help us all to improve'. The school has high expectations of all pupils. This includes those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Many parents agree. Pupils always try their best in school. They follow the school rules of 'ready, respectful, safe'. They believe these rules help them to behave well. Pupils know that adults are there to help them if needed. They know who is responsible for keeping them safe in school. This includes the group of pupils known as the 'super safeguarding squad'. Pupils learn the importance of teamwork and responsibility by being members of different groups, such as the school council or being class ambassadors. The school encourages pupils to be aspirational. As part of this work, pupils learn about different careers, such as farming, medicine and the military, from visiting speakers. Pupils enjoy attending clubs such as drama, singing, mindfulness and dance.
What the school should improve
- The assessments the school uses in a small number of subjects do not always check the most important content pupils need to learn. As a result, gaps in pupils' learning are sometimes missed and are therefore not addressed. This slows pupils' learning. Leaders should ensure that assessments closely match and check the most important content that pupils need to learn.
- Support for some pupils with SEND is not always as effective as it could be. Teachers do not always make the necessary changes for pupils with SEND in lessons. This means that some pupils with SEND do not achieve as well as they could. The school should make sure that all pupils with SEND are able to learn well in lessons.
