What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 2 November 2022
Inskip St Peter's is a safe and happy place to be. Pupils try their best to live out the school's vision of learning, loving and living together. Everyone is part of 'the St Peter's family'. Pupils enjoy coming to school and playing with their friends in the extensive grounds. Leaders have high expectations of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and or disabilities (SEND). Pupils live up to these expectations. They respond well to the work teachers provide for them and achieve well. Pupils behave well. They are polite and well mannered. In this small school, pupils learn and play alongside each other well. On the very rare occasions when bullying does occur, leaders deal with it swiftly and effectively. Pupils participate in a wide range of activities. They appreciate the after-school clubs on offer such as football and tennis. Pupils and parents appreciate the trips and visits.
What the school should improve
- Leaders have not ensured that all adults are experts in the teaching of early reading. As a result, pupils do not gain the phonics knowledge they need quickly enough. Leaders must ensure that teachers are provided with sufficient training to allow them to deliver the phonics programme effectively.
