What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 8 October 2024
Haworth Primary School is a friendly and welcoming place. Pupils enjoy coming to school to learn and have fun with their friends and the supportive adults. They build strong relationships and look out for one another. This creates a supportive atmosphere where pupils achieve well. The school sets clear expectations for pupils' behaviour. This begins in the early years. Children respond well to the routines that are in place. Pupils have confidence in the behaviour systems and the trusted adults in school. This helps them to feel safe and valued. Pupils are enthusiastic about the 'Haworth Heroes'. These are the school's values that promote characteristics such as resilience and respect. Pupils enjoy leadership opportunities and demonstrate these characteristics. They act as ambassadors. They help around school and are role models to younger children. The school council gives pupils a voice; this promotes pupils' understanding about democracy. Pupils appreciate being part of discussion groups. They listen carefully and show respect for each other's views. The school enriches pupils' experiences. It develops pupils' growing understanding of different cultures and faiths through faith visitors and links with other schools. The school offers a wide range of clubs, activities and residential visits that extend pupils' talents and interests.
What the school should improve
- The school's new strategies for helping pupils remember key knowledge in foundation subjects are not fully effective. As a result, some pupils struggle to remember and connect important learning over time. The school should continue to embed these new approaches to ensure that pupils know more and remember more across the curriculum.
- Some pupils have not learned correct letter formation. They struggle when asked to respond in writing. The school should prioritise teaching accurate letter formation and improving handwriting fluency.
