What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 3 June 2025
Pupils are rightly proud to attend Deansfield Primary School. They thrive in its nurturing and supportive environment. The trust's values of optimism, ambition and resilience inform every aspect of school life. Pupils are exceptionally well prepared for the next stage of their education. This begins in the early years, where children develop excellent learning behaviours and secure key learning swiftly. Older pupils attain highly in national assessments in English and mathematics. Pupils do very well here. Pupils' behaviour in lessons and around the school is exemplary. From the early years onwards, children listen attentively to adults. They learn to cooperate, take turns and share. Pupils participate eagerly in their lessons and are highly motivated learners. They are extremely considerate and support each other in the classroom and at playtime. The school offers pupils an extensive range of leadership responsibilities. For example, pupils become eco-councillors, digital leaders and school councillors. Trained peer mentors support other pupils in the playground. The school provides an impressive range of opportunities for pupils to develop their talents and interests, particularly through its exceptional music offer. The school has three choirs and an orchestra. Pupils regularly perform in national competitions. Many pupils, including those who are disadvantaged, learn to play a musical instrument.
