What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 June 2024
Emscote Infant School is at the heart of its community. Leaders and staff care deeply for every child and want the very best for all. Everyone is accepted and celebrated. There is a strong focus on pupils' safety and well-being. Warm, positive relationships between staff and pupils help pupils to feel safe and settled. Pupils enjoy attending school and learning and playing together. Pupils are polite and friendly. They hold doors open for visitors and look after each other. They understand when some of their friends need an extra helping hand, and they quickly step in. Pupils learn to value difference and show respect. The 'friendship stop' means that pupils always have someone to play with. Most pupils behave very well. They know that staff help them to understand if things go wrong. There is a range of experiences on offer. From singing in the local care home to visiting local castles or the Houses of Parliament, there is something for everyone. Pupils enjoy attending after-school clubs such as choir, drama, or dance. They benefit from learning practical skills, such as building campfires at 'life skills for kids' club.
What the school should improve
- The help that some pupils receive when they are falling behind in reading is not always sharply focused enough. This slows their learning and hampers them from catching up quickly. The school should ensure that there is sufficient focus on ensuring that pupils who are falling behind with reading receive the precise support they need to catch up quickly.
- In a few subjects, subject-specific skills and knowledge are not clear enough. This means that pupils sometimes remember activities they have done rather than the intended skills and knowledge. The school should make sure that, in these subjects, the identified key skills and knowledge are explicitly taught so that pupils know more and remember more.
- Sometimes, pupils with SEND do not receive the precise support that they need. This means that these pupils do not achieve as well as they could. The school should ensure that teaching approaches and support are precisely adapted to meet the needs of pupils with SEND.
