What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 18 June 2024
Hawley Primary School is a hub in the local community. Parents, carers, pupils and staff are happy here. This is a place where everyone is valued, and difference is championed. This has led to a harmonious environment where pupils are kept safe and enjoy learning. Pupils benefit from the wealth of opportunities which are available locally to enhance their experience and understanding of the world around them. This has complemented the planned curriculum and led to pupils experiencing a real sense of adventure in their learning. Staff expect pupils to do well. Children get off to a very strong start in early years. They settle quickly and engage positively in the curriculum and other aspects of school life. The needs of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are swiftly identified. Appropriate support is provided for those who need it. This helps pupils learn well and progress through the curriculum. Pupils behave well in lessons and during less structured times. They enjoy learning and try hard in lessons. Pupils' work is of good quality, meaning they are typically well prepared for the next stage of their education.
What the school should improve
- On occasion, the activities provided to pupils do not match the ambition of the planned the curriculum. When this happens, the opportunities for pupils to practise and apply what they have learned is more limited. The school should ensure that the tasks set consistently match the ambition of the curriculum. The school should also ensure that pupils are provided with sufficient opportunity to embed their knowledge and understanding in different subjects.
- The systems which help the school understand the impact of their actions are not consistently applied. This means that strategies to improve aspects of the school's work are not consistently focused on the most important priorities. The school should ensure that their quality assurance processes allow each aspect of their work to be evaluated effectively.
