What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 17 October 2023
Pupils relish the exciting and varied opportunities at Goldsworth Primary School, which helps to prepare them for their future lives. They appreciate how everyone in the school's diverse community is included. Pupils enjoy celebrating different cultures through events like the Diwali bonfire night. They value the school's emphasis on promoting physical and mental health. For example, pupils delight in regular swimming lessons. The school has high expectations of pupils. Pupils strive to demonstrate the school's 'GOLD' values of growing together, opportunities for all, learning for life and daring to dream. This includes the 'fabulous walking' programme. Pupils move calmly and sensibly around the school, respecting others' learning. They are confident to respectfully challenge each other about conduct in the corridors. These high expectations extend into learning. Pupils are passionate about the topics they learn. They are proud to talk about their learning experiences and achieve well. The most vulnerable pupils are well cared for. 'The Haven' is a safe space for pupils who need time and help to calm so they are ready to focus on their learning. These pupils feel fully included, which has helped them be an active part of the school community and learn effectively alongside their peers.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, the curriculum is underdeveloped. This means that staff lack precision about what they are teaching and, consequently, pupils' learning is variable. The school should precisely identify the essential content they intend pupils to learn and check that staff are consistently emphasising it. They should then review how well pupils remember long term the content they have been taught.
