What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 November 2023

'A place to learn together' is very much pupils' experience at Earlswood Junior School. Pupils value the broad and ambitious curriculum they are offered, which is enhanced through specialist teachers in music and physical education (PE). The school has high expectations for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). As a result, the majority of pupils are achieving well. Pupils behave well here. They know what is expected of them. This is underpinned by the 'SMILE' behaviours of self-regulation, manners, independence, listening with respect and empathy. Pupils fully understand these and learn about them weekly. Pupils feel safe, including from bullying. The school provides a range of enrichment and leadership opportunities for pupils. Pupils talk excitedly about these and how they support them to develop confidence beyond the curriculum. The school has a 'pupil parliament', which acts as the voice of the pupils in whole-school decision-making. Trips and visits are carefully planned to reinforce the wider curriculum. Earlswood Juniors is at the heart of its community. The school has established strong links with the surrounding area. Pupils learn about being responsible local citizens. For example, they grow produce to sell at the local farmers' market.

What the school should improve

  • The task design in some curriculum subjects does not support all pupils to move swiftly on in their learning or develop a really deep understanding. This means that some pupils do not always achieve as highly as they could. The school needs to provide suitable tasks across all subjects that support all pupils to make the most progress possible.
