What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 16 May 2023
Hebburn Lakes Primary School is a welcoming, inclusive school where pupils thrive. Pupils are happy and safe. They respond well to the high expectations that leaders set. Leaders and staff are sharply focused on ensuring that pupils achieve well in subjects such as reading and mathematics. As a result, pupils are successfully increasing their knowledge in these subjects. In other subjects, leaders have implemented a carefully considered curriculum matched to pupils' needs. Adults carefully teach children in the early years about school routines and expected behaviours. This helps them to socialise well and learn effectively. Pupils behave well in lessons and in the playground. Incidents of bullying are rare. Leaders and staff address these quickly and effectively. Pupils know who to seek help from if they have any concerns. Leaders and staff help pupils to develop self-confidence. They provide experiences to widen pupils' horizons. Pupils are given opportunities to take responsibilities in school. They make positive contributions to the wider community. They are taught about diversity and equality. This all helps to develop their citizenship qualities. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the social and academic development that their children make.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of subjects, such as science, leaders have not sequenced the different types of knowledge that pupils need to learn clearly enough. As a result, pupils do not fully develop their understanding of how to apply their knowledge, such as how to work scientifically. Where this is the case, leaders should continue their work to map out knowledge more clearly across all subjects.
- Leaders have not completed their programme of subject leadership development. Some subject leaders who are new to their roles are still developing their expertise in refining the curriculum and checking for successful implementation. Senior leaders need to complete their plans to further enhance leadership for all curriculum subjects.
