What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 18 July 2023

Field View Primary School is a happy and caring school. Pupils are safe and enjoy going to school. Leaders have high expectations of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school's vision, 'We are all here to make a difference', ensures there is a culture of constant improvement. Staff encourage pupils to develop qualities, such honesty, respect and perseverance. Pupils are keen to talk about how they work hard with their reading in order to attain 'brag tags' for the amount of reading they do. Pupils can explain what bullying is. They confirm that it is not tolerated at school. Pupils behave well in lessons and at other times of the day. They respond well to the clear routines and expectations that staff set for them. Leaders ensure that pupils who have specific needs receive extra pastoral support to help them to manage their behaviour. Pupils enjoy the opportunities they have to take on roles of responsibility, such as being head boy or girl, prefect, school councillor, peer supports or digital ambassadors. They enjoy attending a range of after-school clubs organised to develop their talents and interests. They also learn a musical instrument and take part in musical performances.

What the school should improve

  • Some pupils do not have a wide understanding of subject-specific vocabulary. Therefore, they sometimes find it difficult to express their ideas confidently. Leaders should ensure that the curriculum helps all pupils to develop their depth and range of vocabulary.
  • The curriculum is not fully embedded in some foundation subjects. As a result, pupils do not gain the planned knowledge and skills they need to achieve well across these subjects. Leaders should continue with their plans to ensure the curriculum is delivered effectively in all subjects.
