What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 22 May 2024

Field End Infant School's 'LEARN' values - 'Listen to others, everybody matters, always be kind, respect and never give up' - are evident in the care given to pupils. These values contribute to a happy and safe environment for pupils. The whole school community supports this positive ethos and these inclusive values. The school is ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). This year, the school has strengthened the curriculum and prioritised the teaching of reading. Because of this, pupils are making strong progress through the curriculum. Children learn to read as soon as they start in Reception and enjoy sharing stories and learning rhymes. Pupils are calm and considerate of others as they move around the school. During social times, pupils eat and play sensibly with their friends. Pupils hold a clear sense of right and wrong and use what they have learned to manage their emotions. Pupils have a range of additional opportunities to participate in. There are many extra-curricular activities, including singing, gymnastics, football, dance, drama and gardening. Pupils can take on roles and responsibilities in school, such as becoming school councillors. Members of the school council have had the opportunity to sing in a local care home.

What the school should improve

  • In some subjects, including phonics, the implementation of the curriculum is not consistently strong due to gaps in subject knowledge for some members of the wider staff teaching team. While pupils learn effectively overall, including in early reading, these gaps in teaching expertise mean that pupils do not acquire deep knowledge as well as they might. To address this, the school needs to provide further training to develop subject leadership and staff expertise in curriculum delivery and, in turn, strengthen the curriculum's impact on pupils' achievement.
