What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 7 May 2025
The school has established a strong culture of mutual respect and collaboration for staff and pupils alike. This inspires pupils to support each other and keep trying even when they find tasks challenging. Staff and pupils treat each other with kindness. These relationships are at the heart of everyday routines at Fellview Primary School. Together, staff have created an environment that helps all pupils to feel fully included in the life of the school. Pupils are happy and safe in this caring place. The school has established an ambitious curriculum. In the early years, children quickly acquire the important language and speaking skills that they need. They are well prepared for their future education. The school deliberately enhances the curriculum through well-chosen trips and visits. Pupils are confident and independent learners, and they achieve well in most subjects. Pupils' behaviour is exemplary. They follow the positive examples that adults set for them. Older pupils use these to act as role models for younger pupils. Some contribute as art or sporting ambassadors. Others contribute as members of the school council. These roles inspire pupils to play their part to improve their school. Pupils enjoy their learning and want to attend school. Their attendance is high.
What the school should improve
- In some subjects, including in PSHE, the delivery of the curriculum does not help pupils to connect new learning to the things that they already know consistently well. As a result, some pupils struggle to remember aspects of important knowledge. The school should ensure that staff are equipped to help pupils to make these connections so that they remember more of the important learning in the curriculum.
