What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 30 November 2022
Kingswood Primary School is a welcoming, happy and inclusive school. The school's values, 'opportunity, enjoyment and excellence' are threaded through the rich, broad curriculum. Pupils are proud to be members of the school and their behaviour is exemplary. They are polite and sociable and show the utmost respect for staff. Pupils are caring and understand what makes a good friend. Staff care deeply about pupils and pastoral provision is strong. Relationships between staff and pupils are excellent. Pupils feel safe at school because they trust staff to look after them. Pupils confirm that bullying is rare. They are confident that adults will sort out any problems that might arise swiftly. Pupils brim with enthusiasm for learning. They enjoy experiences that bring their learning to life, such as the trip on a steam train and 'Victorian Day'. Pupils enjoy receiving 'Top Turtle' awards for demonstrating qualities, such as commitment and collaboration. Staff nurture pupils' talents and interests. For example, pupils can learn to play a brass instrument. They relish the chance to perform to others during 'Whole Class Brass', for example.

What the school should improve
- In some subjects the curriculum is new. In these subjects, leaders do not know the impact of the curriculum on what pupils know and remember. Leaders should ensure that all subject leaders develop the necessary expertise to evaluate the impact of the curriculum on pupils' learning.
