What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 25 April 2023
Pupils embody Hornsea Community Primary School's motto that 'happy children progress and succeed'. Pupils enjoy their time in school and strive to become helpful, responsible citizens of the future. 'The Orchard', an enhanced resource provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), supports pupils with a range of social, emotional and mental health needs. This provision nurtures pupils to learn how to successfully control their own feelings and behaviour. Staff skilfully manage the behaviour of pupils. Pupils are respectful and kind to one another. Staff quickly respond to any behaviour that does not follow the school's golden rules. Pupils know what bullying is. They would tell an adult if they thought it was happening. Pupils are safe and happy. Leaders have created opportunities for every year group to take part in memorable activities. Pupils are encouraged to 'Gopher' (go for) special experiences, such as dancing in the rain in Year 2 and cloud gazing in Year 4. Leaders provide a wide range of extra-curricular clubs. Leaders respond to pupils' suggestions for clubs by offering activities such as Lego or Marvel superhero club. Leaders appoint pupil mental health ambassadors. These pupils support their peers, talking openly and honestly about their thoughts and feelings.
What the school should improve
- Leaders have not consistently matched the 'sticky knowledge' they want pupils to remember to the planned learning in classrooms. Leaders should work with teachers to better emphasise the most important knowledge they want pupils to remember.
